Synagoge, Jewish synagogue in Tilburg, Netherlands
The synagogue in Tilburg is a building with a symmetrical street facade and three window axes, flanked by arched wooden gates and decorated with ornamental brickwork. The structure sits at Willem II-straat 20 and currently houses the Liberal Jewish Community of Brabant.
The structure was designed in 1874 by architect Edouard Fremau and served the growing Jewish community. During World War II, Nazi forces damaged its interior in 1940.
The building displays Eastern influences in its architectural style, particularly visible in the tall windows with pointed horseshoe arches. This design connects to synagogues found in Berlin and Dresden.
The building is located in the city center and is protected as a Rijksmonument (national monument). Visitors should note that it remains an active place of worship with certain conduct expectations.
It is the only liberal Jewish place of worship in the southern Netherlands and draws congregants from Zeeland, Limburg, and northern Belgium. This special role makes it an important gathering point for the Jewish community in the cross-border region.
