The Wörlitz Synagogue, erected in 1790 within the Dessau-Wörlitz Garden Realm in Oranienbaum-Wörlitz, Germany, was commissioned by Duke Leopold III of Anhalt-Dessau as a house of worship for the local Jewish congregation. Built in the Neoclassical style characteristic of its era, the structure now stands as a protected cultural monument. Its location within the garden realm, which has been recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 2000, underscores its historical and architectural significance within this carefully planned Enlightenment-era landscape.
