Jüdisches Gemeindehaus

The Jewish Community House is a modern building in Charlottenburg-Wilmersdorf constructed between 1958 and 1959 in the post-war period. It contains a large assembly hall with seating for about 700 people, educational spaces, a library, and a kosher restaurant.

A synagogue once stood on this site until 1938, when it was destroyed during the Kristallnacht. The present building was constructed afterward to help revive Jewish life in Berlin.

The name reflects the Jewish community that sought to rebuild here after the war. Today visitors find an active gathering place where people come together to worship, study, and share meals.

The building is located in the Charlottenburg-Wilmersdorf district and is easily accessible by public transport. Visitors should check beforehand if special events or services are scheduled, as access may sometimes be limited.

Inside, original Stars of David from the destroyed synagogue building were integrated into the walls. These fragments connect the memory of the destroyed building with the new structure.
