Synagogue

"The building used as a synagogue was probably a kind of shed, which was immediately adjacent to the wonhaus in front of it. The floor area was 7.20m in width, 8.20m in length, i.e. 59sqm. The whole building was quite simple and, as it turned out with time, quite poorly made. The entrance was on the west side, as prescribed by the rabbinical rules. Whether there was a special women's section is unclear. In other respects, too, we know little about the furnishings and equipment. It was by no means meager.

In 1829, the Jewish community of Moringen builds its own synagogue on a plot of land "off the beaten track", in Schneehof 1. A half-timbered building is erected, each with four floor-to-ceiling windows with segmental/round arches on the long sides, two windows on the east side. Towards the east there was presumably also an apse for the Torah shrine. Inside, a women's lodge is suspected.

The liberal community synagogue at Lindenstraße 48-50 was built from 1890 onwards according to designs by the Berlin architectural firm Cremer & Wolffenstein. It was completed in 1891 and consecrated on September 27 of the same year. The synagogue was located in the backyard. In the front building there were the rabbi's apartment, various offices of Jewish organizations and a religious school. Only a part of the synagogue's facade was visible from the street. As was typical of Berlin synagogue architecture at the end of the 19th century, it combined Romanesque and late Gothic forms.
