The only surviving synagogue in Cologne, originally inaugurated in 1899 and then reconstructed and reopened in 1959. Unfortunately it was closed when I visited. The nearest U-bahn station is Zülpicher Platz.

Magnificently restored synagogue of Cologne

(Translated by Google) very interesting tour, the history and Jewish life in Cologne was told in a very moving way. I was able to gain new insights. (Original) sehr interessante Führung, die Geschichte und das Jüdische-Leben in Köln wurde sehr bewegt erzählt. Ich konnte neue Einblicke für mich gewinnen.

the great building with such a huge history of Jewish community and so heartly people)

there is the protocol. You can enter inside only after you get an appointment from the administration person ,you can get online. they are very strict with security and entrance. but from outside it is beautiful building.

Inside it isn't as interesting as the exteriors. Synagogues are not supposed to be visually as striking as Catholic churches, anyway. To get inside you need to go through the usual security checks, bullet proof windows and stuff, which may put off most tourists.

Beautiful!

(Translated by Google) We have been received very friendly. And although we were too late, they also showed us the synagogue and answered questions. Getting used to are the safety precautions. But in the recent attacks they are understandable. (Original) Wir sind sehr freundlich empfangen worden. Und obwohl wir zu spät waren, hat man uns auch noch die Synagoge gezeigt und Fragen beantwortet. Gewöhnungsbedürftig sind die Sicherheitsvorkehrungen. Aber bei den Anschlägen in letzter Zeit sind sie nachvollziehbar.

(Translated by Google) Oldest synagogue without war damage (Original) Älteste Synagoge ohne Kriegs schaden

Beutifull synagogue

Beautiful old synagogue in Cologne. Destroyed by the Nazi's, rebuilt in 1959.

(Translated by Google) We went on a Sunday tour and are very enthusiastic. It is extremely interesting to learn something about the Jewish faith and history, especially in Cologne. The synagogue is impressive and the lady who ran this event was very charming and friendly. The linguistic connections to today's proverbs were also new to us. There is a Sunday brunch that we will definitely take part in and bring friends with us. The only sad thing is that this beautiful and lively center of faith and silence must be guarded by the police. This need depresses me very much. (Original) Wir haben eine sonntägliche Führung besucht und sind sehr begeistert. Es ist äußerst interessant, etwas über den jüdischen Glauben und die Geschichte, besonders auch in Köln, zu erfahren. Die Synagoge ist beeindruckend und die Dame, die diese Veranstaltung geleitet hat, war sehr charmant und freundlich. Auch die sprachlichen Verbindungen zu heutigen Sprichwörtern waren uns neu. Es gibt einen Sonntagsbrunch, an dem wir auf jeden Fall einmal teilnehmen und Freunde mitbringen werden. Traurig ist nur, dass dieses schöne und lebendige Zentrum des Glaubens und der Stille polizeilich bewacht werden muss. Diese Erforderlichkeit bedrückt mich sehr.

Amazing architecture, great people and a splendid restaurant with Isralien cuisine with pre-order options.

Cannot go inside. Nobody answers the bell or the phone or replies to any email.

Beautiful building but if you want to go inside, call in advance. Take passports as security is strict.

They have kosher restaurant inside and pretty good.

Beautiful place! Secure yet accessible. Nice!

(Translated by Google) The synagogue was damaged and destroyed on Kristallnacht as the years returned. Of the dozens of Jewish sites in Cologne, only the synagogue and cemetery remained. There is a memorial wing, a kind of museum. The rest of the place is an active Knesset beach. There are study rooms, prayer room and women's help. Most places inside are not allowed to photograph and there are signs on it. There is strict security to put in, almost like an airport. The master at the entrance speaks Hebrew and after coming in is very nice and kind. It is very exciting and creepy to stand inside this synagogue, even for non-religious people. (Original) בית הכנסת נפגע ונהרס בליל הבדולח, עם השנים שחזרו אותו. מתוך עשרות האתרים היהודים שהיו בקלן נותר רק בית הכנסת ובית קברות. במקום יש אגף של הנצחה, מעין מוזיאון. שאר המקום הוא ביץ כנסת פעיל. יש חדרי לימוד, מקום התפילה ועזרת נשים. ברוב המקומות בפנים אסור לצלם ויש שלטים על כך. יש אבטחה מחמירה כדי להכינס, כמעט כמו בשדה תעופה. האדון בכניסה דובר עברית ולאחר שנכנסים הוא מאוד נחמד ואדיב. מאוד מרגש ומצמרר לעמוד בתוך בית הכנסת הזה, גם למי שאינו דתי.

Concert with Shuly Nathan was great!

Same old just another church

A must visit in Kohln.
