Allee 5, Jewish community center in Heilbronn, Germany

Allee 5 is a community center for Jewish life in Heilbronn, featuring a prayer hall with seating for 50 men and separate accommodations for women behind a partition known as the Mechitza. The building also houses a kitchen with an entrance room and a specialized library containing Jewish literature and religious texts.

The center opened in 2005, replacing the original synagogue destroyed during the November 1938 pogrom in Heilbronn. This reopening marked the resumption of organized Jewish life in the city after decades of interruption.

The prayer hall holds a mobile cabinet crowned with a Star of David that serves as the Torah ark, with a Ner Tamid on the wall beside it; the ark is covered by a blue curtain embroidered in gold. The Bima was donated by an association, and 50 seats for men stand in the same room, with chairs for women behind a Mechitza. A kitchen with an anteroom and a library of Judaica complete the centre.

The center occupies a commercial building on the Allee, directly opposite the site of the synagogue destroyed in 1938. It is a prayer and community space rather than a public museum, so visits depend on the congregation; contact the Heilbronn branch of the IRGW in advance. The prayer hall seats 50 men, with women's seating behind a mechitza.

During the inauguration in 2006, the community celebrated the arrival of a new Torah scroll specially flown in from Israel. This event symbolized continuity and rebuilding after years of absence from organized religious structures.
