Synagogue, Gothic Revival synagogue in central Bordeaux, France.

The synagogue displays two tower-like structures on its facade and features a central sculpture depicting the Ten Commandments tablets.

Following a fire in 1873 that destroyed the previous building, architects Charles Durand and Paul Abadie constructed this synagogue, completing it in 1882.

The interior decorations incorporate design elements from Syrian, Egyptian, Ottoman, and Moorish architectural traditions, reflecting diverse cultural influences.

The synagogue offers guided audio tours in five languages from Monday to Thursday between 2 PM and 5 PM, with admission fees ranging from 3 to 5 euros.

The Memorial for Martyrs, established in 1949 on the western forecourt wall, commemorates local community members who perished during Nazi occupation.
