History/Provenance
The former 18th-century synagogue from the village of Allersheim, in south-central Germany near Würzburg, was dismantled, moved, and rebuilt stone by stone as part of the Franconian Open-Air Museum of the Middle Franconia District (Das Fränkische Freilandmuseum des Bezirk Mittelfranken) in Bad Windsheim. The synagogue was reinaugurated in 2023.
