Úštěk Synagogue, Classicist synagogue in Úštěk-České Předměstí, Czech Republic

Úštěk Synagogue is a sandstone structure displaying classical architectural style with traditional religious design features from the late 18th century. The building shows characteristic elements typical of Jewish prayer houses from this period.

A fire destroyed the previous synagogue building, prompting the Jewish community to construct this new one between 1791 and 1794. The structure then served the community as their prayer house until World War II.

The building now houses a Jewish museum displaying the history and life of the community that once lived in this region. Visitors can learn about the traditions and daily experiences of the people who gathered here for centuries.

The synagogue stands at 1. máje 96 in the western part of Úštěk, on the edge of a rock massif about 200 metres from Mírové náměstí. The building sits on a high sandstone plinth on a steep slope, so the entrance side is one storey while the rear reads as a tower. The adjacent rabbi's house shares the museum site.

The sandstone came from a nearby quarry, and the building stands on a high plinth of sandstone blocks on a steep slope: one storey at the front, tower-like at the rear. In 1851 local builder Wenzl Jahn raised it by 1.2 metres and added the entrance hall.
