Visit the Sir Moses Montefiore Memorial Synagogue in Grimsby.
Heneage Road, Grimsby, Lincolnshire, DN32 9DZ
Built in 1885, the Sir Moses Monetfiore Memorial Synagogue is the only remaining Synagogue in Lincolnshire and South Humberside and one of few of this period in the country to survive so intact. Together with its accompanying bath house this synagogue reflects the former significance of Grimsby’s Jewish community and the town’s prominence in the movement of Jews from Eastern Europe to Britain and America. In the late 19th century Grimsby was the third largest centre (after London and Hull) for Jewish immigration, with over 100,000 landing here in the peak years between 1881 and 1914.
