Synagogue of Nancy, Historical synagogue in Nancy, France
The synagogue features a classical architectural design with a prominent facade on Boulevard Joffre, displaying inscriptions and marble columns at the Holy Arch.
Built in 1788, the synagogue underwent extensions in 1841 and 1861, with architect Alfred Thomas redesigning the facade in 1935 to add modern elements.
The synagogue holds services alternating between Ashkenazi and Sephardic rites, representing the diversity of Jewish traditions within the Nancy community.
The synagogue requires security measures, including police presence during public hours, and visitors should contact the administration before planning their visit.
This religious structure stands as the second oldest active synagogue in France, following only the synagogue of Luneville, which opened two years earlier.
