Monastir Synagogue, Jewish synagogue in central Thessaloniki, Greece.
The Art Deco synagogue occupies a two-story building with geometric patterns and traditional Jewish architectural elements on Syggrou Street.
Built in 1927 with donations from Jewish families who relocated from Monastir to Thessaloniki after the Balkan Wars and World War I.
The synagogue serves as the central place of worship for Thessaloniki's Jewish community, maintaining religious services and traditional ceremonies throughout the year.
Visitors can access the synagogue Monday through Friday from 10:00 to 15:00, with extended hours on Wednesday evenings and Sunday mornings.
During World War II, the Red Cross used the building as a warehouse, which prevented its destruction by Nazi forces.
