The synagogue in the old AKH Vienna was established in 1903 by architect Max Fleischer as the " praying pavilion " for patients of Jewish faith . The synagogue was heavily devastated during the Third Reich 's Kristallnacht in 1938 , and further destroyed when converted after the war , in 1953 , into a transformer station . In 2005 , the remains of the building were restored to become the Marpe Lanefesch Memorial
