The Synagogue is a religious building of the Jewish community in Zwolle. History
From 1747 to 1758, the prayer place of the Jewish community of Zwolle was established in a building on the Bitterstraat, called The Munt. After the lease contract could not be extended, the community asked for a land for a synagogue. Instead, the Zwolse Jewish community was offered De Librije. On September 6, 1758 this place was initiated. At the end of the 19th century, Librije's city grave was flooded with floods. The building was so in decline that the now existing 600 inhabitants of the Zwolse Jewish community were looking for another building. The new construction plans were again taken over.
In the Schoutensteeg five buildings were bought, after which the Zwolse architect F.C. Koch designed the contemporary eclectic building. The frontage was the design of the Zwollenaar J. Gosschalk. July 21, 1899, the new synagogue was initiated.
The Second World War was survived by only a few members of the Zwolse Jewish community. The building was hit by W.O. II in decline. A renovation followed. Due to a number of planological changes, the synagogue now serves as the address of Samuel Hirschstraat 8. However, the Samuel Hirsch Street is still in continuation of the Schoutensteeg or Schoutenstraat. The construction
The eclectic structure consists of a room for the service and an annexe with a house. The annexe also serves as a winter boar.
