After more than a decade of painstaking restoration by the municipality of Nitra, the building is now used as a center for cultural activities.

The synagogue serves as a permanent exhibition space for graphic works by the Nitra-born Israeli artist Shraga Weil.

By the end of August 1944, German troops, accompanied by the local Slovak garrison, entered Nitra and sent the remaining Jews to Auschwitz.

In 1963, the authorities destroyed all Jewish public buildings in Nitra except this synagogue.
