With the building of a new synagoge in 1993, the Jewish community returned to the site of the previous synagogue at Sillgasse 15 in Innsbruck.

The building was designed by the architect Michael Prachensky. Both the entryway with its Hebrew inscription “Build me this house and I shall live in it” and the Mezuzah – a small capsule containing a piece of parchment with a Bible text on it that is attached to the doorpost – speak of the new self-confidence of the Jewish Community.
