Courtyard synagogue of Detmold, Historical synagogue in Detmold, Germany
The half-timbered structure at Bruchmauerstraße 37 measures 8.5 by 5.55 meters and features two stories with a reduced roof slope.
Built in 1633, the building functioned as a gathering space for the Jewish community around 1720 and was rented from musician Julis Hardewig Spangenberg in 1723.
The structure represents one of the earliest examples of a freestanding courtyard synagogue in Northwest Germany, receiving monument protection status in 1988.
The building currently faces preservation challenges, with ongoing legal proceedings determining its future status and potential restoration requirements.
Dendrochronological studies confirmed the building's construction date to 1633, making it the oldest remaining synagogue structure in Detmold.
