Synagogue de Gundershoffen, Jewish synagogue in Gundershoffen, France

The synagogue stands in the center of Gundershoffen, constructed with sandstone walls and featuring a double-pitched tile roof with oriental architectural elements.

Built in 1865 to replace an older structure from 1780, the synagogue served the local Jewish community until the 1930s when many residents left due to rising tensions.

The synagogue complex included a ritual bath, a Jewish school, and supported both men's and women's clubs that organized charitable activities for the community.

Located at 11 rue de la Paix in Gundershoffen, the building now functions as a medical dispensary after being transferred to municipal ownership in 1968.

The cemetery connected to the synagogue contains 966 graves, documenting the Jewish presence in the region from 1815 to recent years.
