120 Years Synagoge Groningen

On 23 March 1906, a new synagogue was inaugurated in Groningen. A building that still evokes wonder 120 years later. This new exhibition takes you from the first sketches and construction drawings to the festive inauguration of the synagogue in 1906.

 

Discover the significance that the building still has today as a place of culture, celebration and remembrance. Step by step, you will see how the synagogue has grown into an iconic building: Jewish in symbolism and orientation, Eastern in its arches and patterns, Christian in its spatial structure and unmistakably Groningen in its materials and craftsmanship.

The texts in this exhibition are presented in Dutch and English.
