description
From the outside, the synagogue is not recognizable as a place of worship because it was set up in a residential building. In 1797 a renovation took place. In the middle of the small prayer room is the bima decorated with columns and on the opposite wall is the narrow Torah shrine , which is bordered by an iron grating.
