In 1860, the Jewish community of Homburg bought the building and converted it into a synagogue. It was damaged in the November pogrom of 1938 and destroyed in air raids during the Second World War.

In 1952, the building was largely demolished and since then only as a ruin. On the street side, the surrounding wall of the ground floor is preserved with a pointed arched window and a portal with pointed arch skylight. From the back wall are still the ground floor with two windows and the first floor with arched windows and the side walls.
