The Old Synagogue ( German: Alte Synagoge) was a synagogue in the Berlin district of Marienviertel (present-day Mitte). Consecrated in 1714, it was known as the Great Synagogue until the opening of the New Synagogue, built in the 1860s to accommodate Berlin's expanding Jewish population. [1] Nevertheless, services continued to be held in the Old Synagogue into the 20th century; it was restored in 1928. [2] The synagogue survived Kristallnacht but was destroyed during World War II. It is marked with a plaque and part of the building's contours are marked with cobblestones. [3]
