Upon its renovation in 2014,[1] it was reopened as a major concert hall in the city.

[2] On 15 January 1909, the hall opened as Harbin General Synagogue (哈尔滨犹太总会堂), the main Jewish religious site for the city.

In June 1931, the building was devastated by a great fire and was refurbished.

Abraham Kaufman, then leader of Harbin Jewish community, was working in the synagogue from 1919 to 1945.

In 2013, over 1 billion Chinese yuan was spent by Harbin municipal government on the refurbishment of the building and transfer to a music hall.
