Kiever Synagogue, Modern Orthodox synagogue in Kensington Market, Toronto, Canada.

The Kiever Synagogue features twin domed red-brick towers with Stars of David and maintains Byzantine Revival architectural elements throughout its structure.

Jewish immigrants from Ukraine established the congregation in 1912, meeting in homes until the current building opened at 25 Bellevue Avenue in 1927.

The synagogue represents early 20th century Eastern European Jewish traditions with Orthodox services and continues to serve downtown Toronto's Jewish community.

The synagogue provides regular Shabbat services, maintains a capacity of 400 people, and accepts donations through multiple platforms as a registered Canadian charity.

Rabbi Solomon Langner guided the congregation from 1929 to 1973 without receiving a salary, sustaining the institution through member donations.
