[citation needed] The congregation was established in 1904 and worshiped from premises located at Penzinger Straße 132.

The building was too small for the growing congregation and, after several attempts, an international competition was held to design a new synagogue.

[citation needed] The winners, Arthur Grünberger and Adolf Jelletz, designed the rectangular building in the Expressionist style, constructed between 1926 and 1928;[1] and completed in 1931.
