Synagogue

Since the beginning of the 18th century, Neckarsteinach had a synagogue or a prayer room in a building. In this was also a ritual bath. 1801 to 1803, the community decided to establish a new synagogue. For this purpose, a house was bought on the road to Hirschhorn (Hirschstraße) and a prayer room with a bathroom and a teacher's apartment was established in it. In 1886, however, the old synagogue had to be torn down due to dilapidation.

Initially there was a prayer room (synagogue) in a private Jewish house. In 1846, during a visit to Ober-Gleen, the Grand Ducal Land Rabbi Levy recommended the extension of the synagogue. Whether this was done at that time is not known. There were insufficient funds for a new building at that time. After all, a fund for a new synagogue building was created in October 1846.  

After the pogrom night in 1938, the Jewish community dissolved Last use: residential

In the village Rödingen (municipality Titz, district Düren) lived already in the Middle Ages isolated Jewish women and men. In the 19th century a small community arose here. The long-standing community leader Isaak Ullmann had a synagogue built on his property in 1841 for the Jewish families in Rödingen and the surrounding villages.

The small half-timbered house was firmly connected on the north side with that of the then master carpenter Klockenhoff. It was accessible through a small alley between the house Klockenhoff and Reccius. The prayer room was 10 x 6 m large and was already mentioned in the original cadastre of 1821. Moses Seligmann who worked as a rabbi and teacher is also mentioned. Heinrich Klockenhoff acquired the annex in 1908 for 800 Reichsmark and integrated it into his estate. His son Heinrich Jr. sold the entire property to Röllecke in 1962.

Warburg was the seat of the Oberlandesrabbinate of Westphalia since 1686 at the latest. A prayer room in a house at the Altstädter Markt was first mentioned around 1650. After the prince bishop of Paderborn had given his approval at the end of the 17th century, a synagogue was established in the somewhat remote, narrow and steep Altstadtgasse "An der Burg", the Jewish schoolhouse was attached to the building.

After the pogrom, the building was given to the German Red Cross and decayed over time. Last use: No use - undeveloped

The synagogue of 1894 is most likely the third on this site. The first building, a wooden structure, dates from about 1802/03. Before that, the Jewish people of Oerlinghausen held their services in rented rooms. The land was provided by the widow Meyer David. The first synagogue was already dilapidated three decades later. A list of costs for a new building is preserved in the state archives in Detmold. There is no evidence of its realization, but it probably took place around 1832/33. This second synagogue also showed traces of forgetfulness around 1890.
