Agudas Achim Synagogue, Functionalist synagogue in Trnitá district, Brno, Czech Republic.

The Agudas Achim Synagogue features a rectangular structure with a prominent square window divided into thirty sections on its southern facade.

Following World War II and its temporary use as a warehouse, the synagogue reopened for religious services on September 6, 1945.

The main prayer hall contains wooden benches facing the marble-clad aron ha-kodesh, with inscriptions in Hebrew adorning the eastern wall.

The synagogue accommodates 184 men on the ground floor and 102 women in the upper gallery, maintaining traditional gender separation.

The building underwent extensive renovations in 2014, including the installation of a custom-designed menorah curtain created in the United States.
