Old Synagogue in Plzeň, Romanesque Revival synagogue in Jižní Předměstí, Plzeň, Czech Republic.
The Old Synagogue stands as a religious structure with two towers, incorporating Romantic and Renaissance Revival elements along with Oriental decorative features.
Built between 1857 and 1859, the synagogue ceased religious functions during Nazi occupation and underwent restoration from 1995 to 1998.
The central hall of the synagogue functions as a venue for musical performances, taking advantage of the building's acoustic properties.
Located at Smetanovy sady 5 in central Plzeň, the synagogue received 2,845 visitors in 2021 and maintains regular opening hours.
Max Fleischer initially designed the synagogue in Gothic style with granite buttresses, but Emmanuel Klotz modified the plans following city council requirements.
