Former synagogue (Enkirch)

Before the synagogue was built in 1852, there was a prayer room located in the Simon family home.

After the forced dissolution of the synagogue community by the Nazis in 1937, the building was sold and became part of a restaurant. Thus, the building escaped destruction during the November pogrom of 1938 and is preserved to this day.
