Linz Am Rhein New Synagogue

Synagogue - Linz Am Rhein, Rhineland-Palatinate

"[The community consecrated] a new synagogue, on Auf dem Berg, in 1851;...On Pogrom Night, rioters destroyed the interior of the synagogue...Linz’s former synagogue, later used as a warehouse, was converted into a residential building in the mid-1980s. A memorial plaque was affixed to the building in 1992."
