- (right) The new synagogue in
Oranienburger Strasse in central
Berlin by Emile Pierre Joseph de
Cauwer (1828–73). Designed in
Moorish style and large enough to
seat 3,000 people, the building was
inaugurated in the presence of Otto
von Bismarck in 1866. - (above) The Altneuschul in
Prague, built in 1270 in Gothic style,
and still in use today. Its impressive
exterior is testimony to the
importance of the Jewish community
in the city.
