Synagoge

The synagogue at Mantzelstrasse 10 stands as a two-story timber-framed structure with baroque and classical architectural elements in its facade.

Built between 1787 and 1789 under authorization from Duke Friedrich Franz I, the synagogue served the local Jewish community until regular services ceased in 1900.

The interior space functioned both as a place of worship and a gathering location for community meetings throughout the late 18th and 19th centuries.

The building underwent conversion into residential housing in 1920, and current restoration work focuses on preserving historical features while adapting the space for modern use.

A recent discovery of a Hebrew inscription reading 'Mazel tov' on one of the timber frames connects the structure to its original religious purpose.
