The well preserved Synagogue was first mentioned in 1429, but must have been in existance well before that. Adjacent to it was the Jewish cemetery, the rabbi's house and the Talmudic school. After expulsion of the Jews, in 1501, it was turned into the Catholic Church of All Saints.
Zidovski stolp (the Jewish Tower) was built in 1465. In the past it was the dwelling of the town peace officer.
