Erected from 1865 to 1872, the New Synagogue was located almost at the very heart of nineteenth century Breslau [today’s Wrocław]. The building was razed to the ground in 1938. The monumental synagogue was designed by Edwin Oppler, one of the first Jewish architects, and it reflected the emancipatory strivings of Breslau’s Jewish community. The history of its construction reveals an intriguing yet virtually unexplored account of a rivalry that involved three major religious communities, each of which tried to outdo one another with a larger and more opulent place of worship. Catholics, Protestants and Jews took concurrent initiatives to build their impressive sacred buildings.
