Caucasus Synagogue in Tirat Carmel

The Caucasus Synagogue stands as a stone building featuring architectural elements from Roman and Crusader periods in northern Israel.

The structure underwent multiple transformations, serving as a church during the Crusader era, then a mosque in 1579, before becoming a synagogue after 1949.

The synagogue functions as a central gathering point for Jewish religious services and communal activities in the Haifa District.

The synagogue maintains regular prayer schedules and implements security measures to ensure the safety of all visitors and congregation members.

Archaeological findings around the synagogue reveal continuous settlement patterns dating from the Bronze Age through the Byzantine period.
