A new synagogue was constructed in the place of this building in 1825 on orders by the Prefecture. Despite the risk of financial ruin, the synagogue was reconstructed between 1858–1860 with the help of a grant by Mayor Charles Joseph Spinga. The architect of the building's facade was Jeannin. In 1871, the Rabbinic authority of Saint-Avold was reorganized by Imperial German authorities and divided into two separate Rabbinates: one in Boulay and one in Saint-Avold. After World War I and the return of Alsace-Moselle to France, the community lost several German members. The synagogue was renovated between 1922–1923. The newly renovated synagogue hosted the inauguration of Nathan Netter, the Chief Rabbi of Metz, on April 19, 1923. Ransacked and desecrated by the Nazis in 1940, it was turned into a firehouse, and later destroyed.
