Synagogue in Kobrin, 18th century synagogue in Kobrin, Belarus.

The synagogue features a three-story central facade with four flat shovels, semicircular windows on upper floors, and arched openings at ground level.

The synagogue, constructed in the 18th century, served as a center for Jewish life when the population of Kobrin was 6,687 Jews in 1897.

The building represents a combination of eclectic architecture with classical elements, making it one of the largest synagogues in Belarus.

The structure, currently in need of restoration, requires approximately one million dollars to transform into a cultural center while maintaining religious functions.

Before World War II, this synagogue was among seven Jewish temples in Kobrin, but now stands as the sole remaining Jewish religious structure.
