Kupa Synagogue, Baroque synagogue in Kazimierz district, Kraków, Poland.

The Kupa Synagogue displays large arched windows and stone altar surrounded by pilasters within its rectangular architectural structure.

Built in 1643 with support from the goldsmiths guild, the synagogue suffered interior destruction during the Nazi occupation of World War II.

The ceiling paintings completed in 1925 depict panoramic views of Jerusalem, Hebron, and other scenes from the Holy Land.

Located at 8 Warszauera Street, the synagogue opens from 10:00 to 18:00 in summer and 10:00 to 16:00 in winter.

The name Kupa derives from Hebrew, referring to the community fund collection that financed its construction in the 17th century.
