They tried to place the objects of the city history learning trail in such a way as to be as close as possible to the building that once stood, to which the description is attached. The former Neolog synagogue, built in 1897, was also close to this place. Moreover, a huge, seven-story house now stands on the former site of the synagogue, meaning that a place had to be found in the square for the memorial. A passing walkway starts from next to the Petőfi statue to the corner of Iparkamara Street, and information was installed next to it.
It shows the synagogue in two states, in its heyday, with the huge dome on top, and the state after 1948, when there is no longer a dome over the building.
The placed texts: "At 8 Deák Ferenc Street, the Moorish-style synagogue of Debrecen Jews was completed in 1897. Although it was slightly damaged during the bombings of 1944, its 44 m high central dome was destroyed by fire in 1948."
It is also known that this fire started during the renovation and was caused by human error. It is interesting that the board does not inform about this...
On the other side: "At the time of the unveiling of the Petőfi statue on August 29, 1948, in the empty place of the destroyed houses, an imposing synagogue and a beautiful wrought iron fence were the background of the work, even without its central dome. The church was demolished in 1962." The educational trail consists of 6 stations.
