Synagogue Affaltrach, Jewish synagogue in Obersulm, Germany.

The religious building features six window axes along its sides and two window axes on its transverse sides, with neoromanesque architectural elements.

The synagogue, completed in 1851 with a donation of 600 guilders from Nathan Krailsheimer, replaced an older structure that closed in 1844.

The building now functions as a museum dedicated to preserving and presenting the history of Jewish communities in Heilbronn and its surrounding areas.

The museum opens every Sunday from 15:00 to 17:00 until November 17, 2024, with free admission and guided tours available upon request.

The synagogue survived the 1938 November pogroms with its exterior intact, though its interior was damaged, and later served as a warehouse and gymnasium.
