Alte Synagoge, Synagogue in Berlin-Mitte, Germany.
The Alte Synagoge features a main prayer hall with galleries, accommodating up to 3000 people, and displays architectural elements from the 19th century.
Built in 1866, the synagogue survived initial destruction attempts during the November 1938 pogrom thanks to local police chief Wilhelm Krützfeld's intervention.
The building now functions as a center for Jewish education, offering exhibitions about Berlin's Jewish history and regular cultural programs.
Located in central Berlin, the synagogue includes a permanent exhibition called 'Open ye the Gates' that presents the structure's history and Jewish heritage.
The restoration project preserved the original facade and golden dome while marking the building's former size with stones set in the ground.
