Centrum Judaicum - New Synagogue

The Centrum Judaicum, which also houses the New Synagogue of Berlin and the headquarters of the Jewish Community of Berlin.

The foundation "New Synagogue Berlin - Centrum Judaicum" presents the history of the synagogue and Jewish life in its permanent exhibition.

The exhibition "Open ye the Gates" focuses on reconstructed architectural fragments and elements of the interior design of the historic building. A tour of the building uses various documents and exhibits to give visitors a sense of the diversity of Jewish life in the heart of the capital, even though most of the originals have been destroyed. Also on display is the floor plan of the former main synagogue, offering a glimpse of the extent of the destruction. The permanent exhibition is complemented by temporary rotating exhibitions. Visits to the dome are only possible from April through September.
