Synagogue

Last use: synagogue/prayer room

Until the inauguration of the synagogue at Jakobsplatz in 2006, the synagogue at Reichenbachstrasse 27 remained the main synagogue of the Munich Jewish community. The synagogue at Jakobsplatz bears the name of the synagogue in Herzog-Rudolf-Strasse, which was destroyed in the pogrom night of 1938. 

In 1856 the house belonging to the widow of Legationsrat Reuß Hospitalstrasse 36 together with the associated garden was up for sale. The Jewish wine merchant Heinrich Hirsch initially wanted to purchase the property. When he heard of the Jewish community's wish to build a synagogue on this property, he withdrew from the purchase in favor of the community. Of the four building plans submitted the one by Baurat Gustav Breymann was selected.

Already in the Middle Ages was a synagogue: This is the still preserved building of the Rathofkapelle in the Rathofstraße. This building was sold to the Eberbach Monastery (in the Rheingau) in 1394. Due to the rededication and renaming by the monastery, the original use of the building was completely forgotten.  
  

The synagogue in Landshut was one of the necessary facilities of the small Jewish community in Landshut. The synagogue as well as the mikvah (the ritual immersion bath) adjoined the residential houses of the Jews, which were located on the Hofberg. From 1450 the situation of the Jews in the town worsened until their expulsion. The synagogue became a Christian property and was transformed into the Salvator Church. The square where the synagogue stood was from then on called Trinity Square.
