The synagogue in Lauterbourg (German Lauterburg ), a French commune in the Bas-Rhin department in the Grand Est region , was built in 1852. The synagogue , which was built according to plans by the Germersheim architect Flörchinger (who also built the Protestant church in Steinweiler ), was located at 1 rue des Pêcheurs.

When Lauterbourg was set on fire by German troops during the Second World War in June 1940 , the synagogue also burned down completely. After 1945 the synagogue ruins were demolished.
