Summary and Remarks
History/Provenance
The Old Synagogue was designed by Cologne architect Sigmund Münchhausen and dedicated in 1906. The synagogue was set on fire on November 9, 1938, (Kristallnacht) and complete demolition was ordered the same day. The multi-synagogue was notable for its prominent dome. A Jewish school was also on the community property in a separate four-story building that also contained apartments.
