Derbent Synagogue, Synagogue in Derbent, Russia.

The Kele-Numaz Synagogue stands on Tagi-Zade Street with traditional architectural elements including stone columns and a grand entrance portal.

Built in 1914 by the Hanukayev brothers, the synagogue became the central religious institution for Mountain Jews in the Eastern Caucasus region.

The synagogue represents the spiritual center of Derbent's Jewish Quarter, where the community maintains its traditions through daily prayers and Torah studies.

The 2500-square-meter Jewish Community Center includes rabbinical offices, ritual baths, a kindergarten, and a museum dedicated to Mountain Jewish heritage.

This synagogue remains the sole surviving Jewish prayer house among the eleven that existed in Derbent before the Soviet period.
