Six Dome Synagogue, 19th century synagogue in Red Village, Guba District, Azerbaijan
The Six Dome Synagogue stands with its hexagonal shape and features fourteen large windows crafted from oak timber displaying geometric star patterns.
Constructed in 1888 by architect Gilel Ben Haim, the synagogue marks the six-day migration of Jewish residents from Qilhat settlement to Galaduz village.
The synagogue includes a seven-meter-high aron-kadus section where the Holy Book remains stored in a wall-mounted wardrobe for religious ceremonies.
The building contains a basement hall that accommodates sixty people and includes kitchen facilities specifically designed for religious ceremonies and gatherings.
This synagogue represents the last remaining shtetl outside Israel and the United States, located in an entirely Jewish settlement in Azerbaijan.
