Here's a listing in Adressbuch von Frankfurt for the Israelitische Religionsgesellschaft (IRG) in Frankfurt. Above it is the address for the Israelitische Gemeinde, i.e. the Israelite Community. Israelitische means Israelite. Gemeinde means Community. So I assume this is the general non-secessionist community. It was on Allerheiligenstraße 75. (Thank you to Uwe, the kindly archivist at the museum for finding this.)
You'll see below that a listing for the Israelitische Religionsgesellschaft without an address. Religionsgesellschaft means religious society. I believe that it is pronounced: Israel Etisheh ReligiOngezelshaft
But I found on the German Wiki that the street of the original IRG is Schützenstraße, which is one block from Rav Hirsch's home on Schöne Aussicht. Schützenstraße means protection street or something like that.
Der erste Synagogenbau der deutschsprachigen Austrittsorthodoxie entstand um 1853 in der Frankfurter Schützenstraße. Der Nachfolgebau Friedberger Anlage 5–6 (1905–1907 erbaut) war einer der geräumigsten jüdischen Sakralbauten Europas. Erst 1928 wurde die Frankfurter Israelitische Religionsgesellschaft eine eigenständige Körperschaft.
The first synagogue built by the German-speaking Orthodox secessionists was erected around 1853 on Schützenstraße in Frankfurt. Its successor, located at Friedberger Anlage 5–6 (built between 1905 and 1907), was one of the most spacious Jewish places of worship in Europe. The Frankfurt Israelite Religious Society did not become an independent corporation until 1928.
