One old synagogue was conducting services as early as 1817, when the local businessman who they rented a building from sold the house.

Despite the risk of financial ruin, the synagogue was reconstructed between 1858 and 1860 with the help of a grant by Mayor Charles Joseph Spinga.

[2] After World War I and the return of Alsace-Moselle to France, the community lost several German members.

The newly renovated synagogue hosted the inauguration of Nathan Netter, the Chief Rabbi of Metz, on April 19, 1923.

During the European Days of Jewish Culture, the synagogue served as a concert space.
