"[The community established] a new synagogue on present-day Buchener in 1819...On Pogrom Night, SA men broke into the synagogue, smashed the windows and destroyed furniture and ritual objects. The structure was not damaged severely, but the building was nevertheless later torn down, after which an apartment building was erected on the site."
