The Jewish community of Reken existed since 1856, when the Jews from Groß Reken and Klein Reken joined with those from Borken, Gemen, Heiden, Raesfeld, Ramsdorf and Velen to form the synagogue district of Borken, with Borken as the main town. With the construction of a synagogue in Groß Rekener Hauptstraße in 1863, they formed an independent sub-community with its own services. With the sale of the synagogue on March 29, 1938, Jewish life in Reken ceased.
