Jesmond Synagogue, Byzantine Revival synagogue in Jesmond, England.

The Jesmond Synagogue features alternating beige and red brick stripes and a triple arcade porch with lotus bud capital columns along its exterior walls.

Established in 1914 as a branch of Leazes Park Synagogue, the building served Jewish worshippers until 1986 when services moved to a new location in Culzean Park.

The synagogue, designed by architect Marcus Kenneth Glass, incorporates Art Deco elements within its Byzantine Revival style, including a prominent sunburst stained-glass window.

The former religious building on Eskdale Terrace has been transformed into residential apartments while maintaining its original architectural features.

A commemorative plaque installed in 2019 marks the building's history as Newcastle's Orthodox Jewish congregation's place of worship from 1915 to 1986.

Location: Tyne and Wear

Architectural style: Byzantine Revival architecture
