There is a small synagogue with 80 seats. Services were started here in April 1998. Seating is mixed, siddurim (prayerbooks) are in Hebrew with transcription and German translation. The first Bat Mizva took place in August 1998. As this synagogual community, which started 1994 as a grassroots groop, is very new, it is not clear whether it will adopt a more conservative or a more reform orientation.
