Synagoge Aachen, Synagogue at Synagogenplatz, Germany.

The Neue Synagoge features a concave facade with Hebrew inscriptions and leads to a circular prayer room accommodating 300 worshippers facing east toward Jerusalem.

Built in 1995 at the location of the original 1862 synagogue, which was destroyed during the November 1938 pogroms by the National Socialist regime.

The prayer hall contains twelve wall panels representing the Tribes of Israel, with wooden panels for acoustics and a shrine housing Torah scrolls.

The Jewish Community of Aachen maintains office hours from Monday to Friday between 8:00 AM and 2:00 PM at Synagogenplatz 23.

Five stones from the previous Aachen synagogue were incorporated into the construction of the new building, connecting past and present structures.
