The new synagogue, which by this time was not completely finished, was partially destroyed but was repaired after the war.

During World War II, the Germans burned alive many local Jews in the building.

The Baroque Revival[1] former synagogue was a brick building and consisted of the main hall and a narrower and lower narthex.

To the north of the former synagogue is a one-storied building that is thought to have been a Mikveh, or Jewish bath-house.

The inside of the main hall was divided by four square arches into nine bays.
