Biographical/Historical Information

The neo-classicistic synagogue in Offenbach am Main was consecrated in 1916 as a last example of Germany’s ‘Golden Age’ of synagogue architecture that began with the Jews’ emancipation in the mid-19th century. It was built upon the initiative of Siegfried Guggenheim; the interior was designed by the artist Richard Throll.
