About

The Stadttempel in Vienna stands as a poignant reminder of resilience and history. Designed by the esteemed architect Joseph Kornhäusel, this neoclassical and Biedermeier style synagogue opened its doors in 1826 and has since been a magnificent beacon of faith and culture. Its pale blue coloring, gold details, and theatrical balconies create a serene yet captivating atmosphere. Remarkably, it was the only synagogue in the city to survive World War Two, adding a profound layer to its historical significance. The experience is enriched by a well-documented Holocaust memorial, offering visitors a deeply moving glimpse into the past. Access to the beautifully restored synagogue is through guided tours, ensuring an enriching visit. Suitable for families, it remains a top-rated attraction in Vienna, inviting respect and contemplation from all who enter.
