The synagogue is the most monumental sacred building in the city. Along with the former Jewish school building (on the left) and the Jewish Community building (on the right), the Synagogue was constructed in the first decade of the 20th century according to the designs of the Budapest architect Lipót Baumhorn, known for his numerous buildings done in the Secessionist style. Its impressive presence and rich decoration testify to the former power and grandeur of the Jewish community, which had been present in Novi Sad since its beginnings. The first synagogue was erected as early as 1717, as a witness to the fact that Jews were among the first inhabitants of Novi Sad.

Before World War II, Novi Sad had a Jewish population of around 4,300. About 800 were killed during the Novi Sad Raid from January 21 to 23, 1942. After the Third Reich occupied Hungary in March 1944, the Nazis began implementing the "Final Solution to the Jewish question” in these areas as well. In April 1944, a ghetto was established in the Synagogue's courtyard, from which almost all of Novi Sad's Jews were deported to Auschwitz on April 27. After the war, only about 300 Jews remained in Novi Sad.

Many Jews joined the anti-fascist movement and the People's Liberation Movement (NOP) from the beginning of the occupation and fought in the ranks of the partisans. In 2023, a monument was erected in the Synagogue's courtyard to commemorate the fallen Jewish fighters against fascism.
