New Synagogue, Modern synagogue in Dresden, Germany

The New Synagogue features a cubic structure with chain mesh curtains in golden metal and receives natural light through the roof and entrance area.

Built in 2001 on the location of the Semper Synagogue from 1840, which was destroyed during the events of Kristallnacht in November 1938.

The sanctuary space maintains a square shape with dimensions that reference the measurements of the Temple in Jerusalem, connecting past and present Jewish traditions.

Located at Hasenberg 1 in Dresden's old town, the synagogue is accessible by tram lines 3, 7, 8, and 9, stopping at the Synagoge station.

The original Star of David, rescued by firefighters during the 1938 destruction, remains preserved and displayed at the main entrance of the building.
