Synagogen in Berlin
HERBARTSTRASSE 26
The little Leo Baeck Synagogue (architect Hans Wolff Grohmann)
with its 130 seats was inaugurated in 1981 and contains objects from a
prayer room in the pre-war old aged people’s home situated at Iranische
Strasse. The building is part of the complex of Leo Baeck Old People’s
Home and Jeanette Wolff Senior Center. Leo Baeck (1873-1959) came to
Berlin in 1912 and worked here as rabbi. He survived the Theresienstadt
concentration camp and lived in London until his death. Jeanette Wolff
(1888-1979), a Holocaust survivor, was active in the Berlin House of
Representatives (Berliner Abgeordnetenhaus) and later in the German
Parliament (Bundestag).
RYKESTRASSE 53
In 1903-1904 it was built by Johann Hoeniger with 2000 seats.
It is situated in a court yard and remained undamaged. Originally a
Reform Synagogue with organ, choir loft and mixed seating, this practice
is no longer followed. In 1940, the building was confiscated and used as
an army store. |

In 1953 it was renovated (further renovations in 1987) and
served the small East Berlin Congregation for many years.
