Complete profile
100

In September 1840, the newly built synagogue was inaugurated for the congregation, which in the meantime had grown to 111 members. It was located in the rear area of the property Ravensberger Strasse 25. At this place there was already decades earlier a smaller predecessor building. Behind the synagogue was the shul house for ritual shul according to the Jewish dietary laws. The synagogue was severely damaged during the Reich Pogrom Night on November 10, 1938, plundered and thus rendered unusable.
