One Baroque wall survives from Halberstadt’s synagogue

This photograph shows the surviving vestibule wall of the synagogue inaugurated in 1712. Visitors now stand beside a fragment left after desecration and demolition. The wall preserves part of the building, but not the sanctuary or the life once held inside it.
