Since the Jewish community of Erfurt grew again after the end of World War 2, the community board already in 1946 made a first request to the city of Erfurt for the return of the property on which the Great Synagogue had stood until 1938. After a council decision on March 20, 1947, the community received the site back. Since then, they worked on plans to build a new synagogue.
