Old Synagogue Dresden
The Dresden Synagogue or Semper Synagogue, today also called Old Synagogue was the synagogue of the Jewish community in Dresden, inaugurated in 1840 and destroyed in the November pogrom in 1938. The neo-Romanesque building designed by Gottfried Semper was the first modern synagogue to be uniformly designed inside in orientalizing style and served mainly Edwin Oppler as a model for numerous other synagogue buildings.
Former community synagogue Halberstadt Bakenstraße (1712-1938/39) with memorial "DenkOrt" (2008)
On the basis of a donation by the Halberstadt court factor Berend Lehmann (1661-1730), the magnificently furnished Baroque synagogue of the Halberstadt community was inaugurated in 1712, in the backyard area of Judenstraße 24-27 (on the site of two previous buildings). In contrast to the first public synagogue in the Prussian royal city of Berlin (1714), the Halberstadt house of worship visibly towered over the surrounding buildings from afar. As the first synagogue in Germany, it followed the architecture of its time.

Oranienburger Street Synagogue (Berlin)
The so-called New Synagogue in Oranienburger Straße, which can already be spotted from the S-Bahn with its 50m high golden dome, was once the largest Jewish house of worship in Germany. It had several thousand seats and was considered the most magnificent synagogue in Berlin. The synagogue was built according to the designs of architects Eduard Knoblauch and August Stüler and was finally completed in 1866 after seven years of construction. While the liberal house of worship was relatively spared until 1940, it was almost completely burned out after a bombing raid in November 1943.
