Summary<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the second half of the 18th century, at a time Jews were not yet allowed to settle in Utrecht, during the yearly fairs services were held in a guest-house  (see \u00a7 3). These services continued until a proper synagogue was opened. For that purpose a former Baptist church was rented in 1792 and bought in 1796.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Endorsement\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

In 1794 a congregation (kehillah) was established with endorsement of the members.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The main building of the synagoge was sold in 1981 and since 1984 it is the home of the Evangelical community \u201cStichting Zending en Opwekking\u201d, under the name \u201cBroodhuis\u201d ( a Dutch equivalent of Hebrew Beth Lechem) (see: http:\/\/www.zendingenopwekking.nl\/broodhuis.htm<\/a> )<\/p>\n\n\n\n
