Beis Aharon V'Yisrael Synagogue, Baroque revival synagogue in Lviv, Ukraine.
Beis Aharon V'Yisrael Synagogue is a rectangular religious building in Lviv featuring baroque revival architectural elements on its facade. The interior contains decorative details that reflect early 20th-century design principles and craftsmanship.
Architect Albert Kornblüth designed this building in 1912 in the baroque revival style. It was one of only two synagogues in Lviv to survive World War II.
The synagogue serves as a gathering place for the Jewish community to observe religious ceremonies and holidays. People come here to participate in services and celebrations following Jewish traditions.
The synagogue is located on Brativ Mikhnovskykh Street in the city center. Visitors should dress modestly and check local conditions before planning a visit.
During Soviet times, the building served non-religious purposes including use as a horse stable. Its restoration as a house of worship did not take place until 1989.
