For a short impression of the Synagogue.:

The synagogue is cross-shaped and is characterized by the Moorish style, with oriental-style horseshoe in the windows and galleries and keyhole arches. The oriental style borrowed one to the synagogue in Berlin.
In the Synagogue was place for 600 people. In 1942 the building was closed by the occupiers.
The precious Torah scrolls and liturgical objects were hidden in the vault of a bank building in Groningen. Only about two hundred of the 2800 Groningen Jews survived the war.
The building was sold in 1952. The whole run-down building was later purchased by the city of Groningen and restored. In 1981 it was rededicated.
Since then, the synagogue used as a "shul" by the Jewish municipality of Groningen and as a cultural space for concerts, exhibitions, tours and education by the Folkingestraat Synagogue Foundation.
