Laatst bekeek ik ook deze onder het winkelcentrum tussen de Gedempte Gracht en de Grote Marktstraat. Ik was eigenlijk op zoek naar de gedenkplaat die er zou zijn geweest in de C&A. Oudere medewerkers wisten er nog wel van, maar hij lijkt verdwenen na de verbouwing in 2006/7. Weet jij misschien meer?

Testimonies to the Jewish community of #Groenlo or Grolle: the building that housed the synagogue between 1822 and 1950 and the nineteenth-century cemetery just outside the city walls. In 2004, fifteen lead amulets from the seventeenth century were excavated just nearby.

The New Synagogue at the Gerard Noodtstraat in #Nijmegen, an Orientalist design (with Torah scroll shaped centre), was consecrated in 1913. During WWII, the building was used as a storage space by the Nazis. Not long after, it became a church, and thereafter a museum. Since 2023, it houses a gym.
