Assuming that you are talking about legal travel, Syrians usually go to Damascus or Aleppo and apply at European embassies/consulates for a VISA to go to Europe. Given that travel in Syria is dangerous and most embassies have been either abandoned or are running with a skeleton crew, a Syrian must now go to embassies or consulates in neighboring countries like Lebanon, Jordan, or Turkey.
However, most Syrians who are trying to flee Syria are not doing it legally. The most common way for Syrian refugees to try to enter Europe is through illegal crossings from Turkey to the Greek islands in the Aegean. European Union Law holds that as soon as a person is on European Union soil, deportation requires bureaucratic procedures, as opposed to if they are stopped at the border and can be immediately turned around. As a result, many Syrians brave the currents of the Aegean for the hope and dream of living in countries with good economies not torn apart by violence.

Does Syria have open border with Europe?
NO. Syria has a closed border with all other countries. However, because of the Syrian Civil War, many Syrians simply flood over the borders of neighboring countries. If they go to Turkey, many will then smuggle themselves out of Turkey and into Greece. Since Greece has open borders with the European Union, this effectively means that Syrians have direct access to much of Europe.
Did Europe ever let Syrian refugees in before?
YES. Europe did accept refugees from Syria for decades, but very few Syrians made it out of Syria since the Assads would have their armies shoot people who made an illegal crossing. Since Assad can no longer do this and the situation in Syria has substantially deteriorated, hundreds of thousands of Syrians are coming to Europe (instead of the small trickle from before).
