It was built 1859–1866 as the main synagogue of the Berlin Jewish community, on Oranienburger Straße. Because of its eastern Moorish style and resemblance to the Alhambra, it is an important architectural monument of the second half of the 19th century in Berlin.
The Heckmann yards in Berlin are a structural ensemble consisting of three courtyards, with the front and rear court surrounded by residential buildings
