Little Synagogue on the Prairie, Wooden synagogue at Heritage Park Historical Village in Calgary, Canada.
The building features a sanctuary with Torah scrolls stored in the aron kodesh, a kitchen area, and traditional Stars of David decorations throughout.
Constructed in 1913 as the Montefiore Institute, this synagogue served thirty Jewish farming families who settled in Sibbald, Alberta during the early 20th century.
The synagogue functions as an educational center where visitors learn about Jewish traditions, religious practices, and the agricultural settlements in western Canada.
The synagogue opens daily as part of Heritage Park Historical Village, offering guided tours and educational programs about Jewish heritage in Alberta.
This structure stands as the first Jewish house of worship to be permanently displayed in a Canadian historical park, following its relocation in 2008.
