\u201cShalom\u201d \u2013 Synagogues Through the Ages<\/h2>\n

New Exhibition Starting November 10<\/strong><\/p>\n

In cooperation with the State Museum of Hanover<\/p>\n

<\/h3>\n

With the synagogues destroyed during Kristallnacht, visible sites of a Jewish-European culture that had developed over centuries disappeared. Researchers at \u201cBet Tfila\u2014Research Center for Jewish Architecture in Europe\u201d at the Technical University of Braunschweig are now bringing these destroyed sites of Jewish life back to life: Their architectural models reconstruct what Nazi terror once destroyed. Integrated into the \u201cWorlds of Art and People\u201d exhibitions at the State Museum and into the exhibition on the New Synagogue at Villa Seligmann, the wooden models open up new perspectives and demonstrate that Jewish culture has been part of European history since late antiquity.<\/p>\n
