Synagogue (Bodenfelde)

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Bodenfeld synagogue, today in Göttingen

The synagogue in Bodenfelde , a municipality in the Northeim district in Lower Saxony , was built in 1825. The synagogue was located on Mühlenstraße in Bodenfelde and is now in Angerstraße in Göttingen.

The synagogue was built in half-timbered construction . It is a column-free, almost square hall building with a women's gallery in the west, which was accessed from an outside staircase. The Uslar-Bodenfelde-Lippoldsberg synagogue community was forcibly dissolved during the Nazi dictatorship; the synagogue with its solidly built fittings was "Aryanized" in 1937 and used as a storage shed from then on. So she survived the November pogroms of 1938 . It was used as a barn after 1945 when the gallery and stairs were removed and large barn doors were added.

The danger of decay building was built in 2006 to Göttingen translocated and is used today by the Jewish community as a synagogue.
