Lonely Planet review

By the end of WWII Stadttempel was the only synagogue spared from destruction by the Nazis. Since then it has been the main place of worship for Vienna's ever-expanding Jewish community. Built in 1824 by Josef Kornhäusel, the bland façade gives no hint of the exquisite Biedermeier interior. Entrance is by hour-long guided tour only; bring your passport as proof of identification.

The Stadttempel is included in the combined ticket for the Jüdisches Museum and Museum Judenplatz.
