The Synagogue in Iosefin is a place of mosaic worship in the municipality of Timisoara. Built in eclectic style with Moorish elements according to the plans of the architect Karl Hart, the synagogue was inaugurated in 1895 by the mayor Károly Telbisz In the yard of the synagogue were a heder (kindergarten), a mikve (ritual bath) and a ritual slaughterhouse. The Orthodox primary school, established in 1918, moved 10 years later to a new headquarters at the end of the court. The marble plaque inside the synagogue commemorates the construction of the school in 1928, honoring the names of those who contributed: first-Rabbi Bernhard (Bernát) Schück, President of the Jacob Rothbartcommunity, architects Arnold Merbl and Jacob (Jakab) Klein and others. The temple became functional again during spring 2018, the building being now separated from the synagogue courtyard by a wall.
