I especially love the poignant example of Rabbi Trepp. I'm happy he was able to see the synagogue revived after all these years! http://burkeanreflections.blogspot.com That is a beautiful synagogue!

It was also hard to find, which is amazing considering its historic significance and sheer size. I have mixed feelings about Jews moving to Germany, but it would have been a crime to let this magnificent building continue to crumble. By the way, that synagogue did not have armed guards in 1983, but the Fasanenstrasse shul in Munich did, and you had to present your passport in order to be allowed in.

From what I can see, that synogogue is really beautiful. I almost wish one could airlift up it and take it to Israel. How many Jews are left in Berlin, anyway? Wow!
