Synagoge Michelstadt, 18th century synagogue in Michelstadt, Germany.

The synagogue stands next to the old city wall at Mauerstrasse 19, featuring a late baroque style with a half-hipped roof and a women's gallery.

Built in 1791 on the site of an earlier religious building, the synagogue survived the 1938 pogrom when its interior was destroyed but outer structure remained intact.

Rabbi Seckel Löb Wormser established a Talmud school in the synagogue during the early 19th century, teaching numerous students Jewish traditions and texts.

The synagogue opens from Sunday to Thursday between March and November, with guided tours available for groups lasting approximately 40 minutes.

The building contains a preserved Hebrew inscription from Numbers 24:5 and a keystone marking its construction date of 1791.
