In 1987, the building was completely demolished after an arson attack accompanied by Nazi and anti-Semitic graffiti" (Brocke, Schwarz, 1999) The attack took place in February 1984. The Jewish community of Dusseldorf had previously declared: "In order to prevent any misuse, the demolition of the building would, in our opinion, be the best solution".

The Düsseldorf Jewish community was able to inaugurate the synagogue in Kasernenstraße as early as 1787. However, it proved to be too small within a short time. Since the Jewish community was put on an equal footing with the rest of the city's population in political terms in the middle of the 19th century, the synagogue community officially came into being and work began on erecting a new building for the synagogue on the same site.
