Kielce Synagogue, Synagogue in Kielce, Poland.

The synagogue, designed by architect Stanisław Szpakowski, features a main prayer hall and stained glass windows within its brick structure.

The synagogue, built between 1901 and 1903 on land donated by Mojżesz Pfefer, marked the growth of the Jewish community in Kielce.

The building served as a central gathering place for a Jewish population that reached 25,000 people by 1939 before World War II.

The structure now functions as the State Archives bureau, maintaining documents and records important to the region's administrative needs.

During World War II, Nazi forces transformed this religious building into a storage facility for property taken from the Jewish community.
