Synagogue, Jewish house of worship in Delémont, Switzerland.
This house of worship was built in 1911 in a residential area outside the old town and displays traditional architectural features. The interior contains a dedicated prayer hall that once served the needs of the local Jewish community.
The building was constructed in 1911 to serve Alsatian Jewish merchants and tailors who had established themselves in town. It witnessed the life of this community across several decades until religious services came to an end in the 1980s.
The building represents a chapter in the community's religious history, marking where Jewish residents once gathered for worship and celebration. Visitors can experience the interior space and understand how this place served those who lived here.
The site sits in a quiet residential area and is easily accessible on foot. Since the building is now protected as a cultural property, check ahead about current access arrangements and visiting hours.
A documentary film captured the stories of the final community members, preserving their personal memories and experiences. These recordings offer an intimate glimpse into the lives of those who once gathered here.
