Earlier this week I showed a few pictures from inside the synagogue in Groningen. My third and last post (for now) about this building shows the interior as seen from the hallway on the first floor. Nowadays the synagogue is used for all kinds of events, like concerts, exhibitions, lectures etc.
And this is the view from outside in the Folkingestraat. If you would like to read more about the synagogue please click

Inside and outside, the architecture of this synagogue is tremendously appealing!

BeantwoordenVerwijderenLooks beautiful building. It's great that the synagogue is filed and there is activity. History lives in the spirit of this building.
BeantwoordenVerwijderenSuch a beautiful space. Thanks for giving this overview - it puts your more detailed shots from earlier in context.
BeantwoordenVerwijderenHet deed me even denken aan het Tropeninstituut in Amsterdam, waarschijnlijk uit dezelfde tijd. Leuk dat het gebouw ook voor andere activiteiten wordt gebruikt.
BeantwoordenVerwijderenLove the decorated archways Marleen.. It seems to be the norm now that churches of all religions get used for more than services, community projects.. I think it's a good idea.
BeantwoordenVerwijderenThis is a huge synagogue. I have not seen a synagogue and thank you for sharing this.
