In the 14th and 15th centuries it was a religious, spiritual and cultural centre of the medieval Jewish community in Maribor. In [[established:: 2001]] the beautifully simple straight-lined building was restored and reconstructed thoroughly, and since that time the [[Maribor Synagogue Cultural Centre]] has been considered one of the most important venues for the visual and performing arts in the old quarter of Maribor. |
