Synagogue

Since 1799, the Jewish community in Boizenburg had a synagogue in the small Wallstraße. In 1864, the synagogue, which was originally a half-timbered building, was completely rebuilt and received a new brick facade. The consecration of the synagogue took place on October 1, 1864. The synagogue was sold as early as 1892 due to the decline in the number of congregation members. In 1934, the city took over the house and used it as a local museum until the 1980s.

The villa in Harvestehude was rented by the Sephardic community in 1935 and furnished as a synagogue. The building bore the Hebrew inscription "Holy Congregation of Sephardim Beit Israel - Near is God to all who call upon Him"; on the bay window was a Magen David. Neither had to be removed, despite a protest by the NSDAP to the relevant authorities. In 1938, the synagogue was probably not attacked. After the lease expired at the end of 1939, the building was converted back to residential use.

The so-called Klaussynagoge was founded around 1700 [in older accounts usually the year 1703 is mentioned] by the Halberstadt court factor Berend Lehmann (1681-1730) as a Jewish study and teaching house. The prospective teachers and rabbis were to be released from community service in order to be able to devote themselves entirely to Torah and Talmud study "in seclusion". Previously, Berend Lehmann had already financed the first printing of the Babylonian Talmud in Germany (Frankfurt/Oder) in 1696-99.

First there was a prayer room available. The prayer room mentioned in 1852 in a status report on Jewish worship in the area of the Kirchheim district commissariat had been established "for 62 years already" in the house of Jacob Landsberg (that is since 1790). In 1814 the Jewish community purchased this house for 900 guilders. Over the years the condition of the prayer hall became worse and worse. In 1841 it was said that the building was "demolished", that is, in dilapidated condition. A little later it was demolished.
