The Synagogue in Maribor was built in the late 13th century as part of a complex including a Jewish cemetery, rabbinical residence, and Talmudic school. In 1501 the synagogue was turned into a Catholic church, the Church of All Saints. Following renovations, the building reopened in 2001 as a museum and cultural-exhibition dedication to the Jewish community of Maribor and Slovenia.
