Zunächst was a prayer room available. It was located like the Jewish school (named in 1814) in the house of Manleib Insel. In 1834 Landrabbiner Hirsch said that the prayer room was too small, "so that a larger place should be considered". From the rabbi's criticism of the service as "not punctual, not regular, not worthy" consequences were then drawn. Also planned in the aftermath a synagogue. In 1838, the Jewish families were able to buy a house with land on the main street of the village. The old building was demolished and replaced by a new one.
