    The inscription in Hebrew is: "In the city of Leipzig 14000 Jews fell victim to Fascist terror"
  • Dazzling Cabbage said:
    The German says that "here on the 9th of November, 1938, the great synagogue was destroyed by fascists. Do not forget this."

    Thank you for these translations!

Rykestrasse Synagogue; Berlin

  • Andreas said:
    You tagged the pic "destroyed synagogue". It was not destroyed by the nazis because it is situated in a residential area backyard. So they vandalized the interior and left the building undestroyed. It is still in use and beautifully restored. Added tag "rykestrasse".
  • Center for Jewish History, NYC said:
    Thank you for this correction! It's nice to know that this building is still standing. Is it now used as a synagogue again?
