Verdun has been a Jewish presence since the th century and has long remained the seat of the Rabbanut in the Meuse. A first synagogue was built in 1805 on the location of a former convent at the bottom of the Impasse impasse. Destroyed by bombings in 1870, it was rebuilt between 1873 and 1875 by architect Henri Mazilier. It has an architecture of Spanish-Moorish style, very uncommon, which recalls the appeal of the time for the Orient and the exoticism it releases. A porch with bypassed arches, arabesques and geometric motifs bears witness to this exotic influence. Inside, it has a metal structure called Eiffel, supporting huge glass-spreading glass. Since 1995, important restoration work has been undertaken, including the restoration of the Tables of the Act that, destroyed during a storm in August 1958, have returned to the top of the building. A unique case in the region, the rabbi welcomes the rabbi. Guided tours are offered during Heritage days in June.
