• The Synagogue in Voehl

    The synagogue in Voehl is a well-preserved building from 1827 with a gallery and vaulted ceiling. The interior was completely destroyed on the night of the pogrom in 1938. Today, events are held in this former prayer room; the adjoining rooms house a museum and a library about Judaism.

    Reconstruction of the interior of the synagogue

    The prayer room of the synagogue lost its interior furnishings in 1938.  With digital tools, the former impression of the room can be recreated.
