Builders found the remains of Munich’s main synagogue in a river, 85 years after Adolf Hitler ordered its demolition. He writes about it”BBC“.
Columns and a stone tablet with the Ten Commandments were found from the synagogue. According to the BBC, the Jewish community was pleased with the finding. The synagogue was demolished in June 1938 after Hitler called it “obvious”.
“We never thought we would find anything from it. i saw it for the first time yesterday [остатки]”It was one of the most touching moments of my 30 years of work in Jewish museums, especially when I saw the Ten Commandments tablet, which had not been seen since 1938,” said Bernhard Purin, head of the Munich Jewish Museum.
Leonhard Moll, the construction company that destroyed the synagogue, kept the wreckage at its site west of Munich until 1956. About 150 tons of stones were then thrown into the river for the rebuilding of the massive Grossgesselocher dam.
