Synagogue du boulevard d'Alsace, Synagogue in Boulevard d'Alsace, Cannes, France

Synagogue du boulevard d'Alsace is a house of worship for Cannes' Jewish community on the French Riviera. The building stands on Boulevard d'Alsace and serves as the primary religious center for observant Jews throughout the Alpes-Maritimes region.

The synagogue was built in 1952 at 20 Boulevard d'Alsace, replacing the Belle Époque origin sometimes attributed to it. It was enlarged in September 1991, when the building gained its present extent. Its copper-covered dome and abstract stained-glass windows date from this history of construction and expansion.

This building serves as a gathering place for Cannes' Jewish community, hosting regular prayers and religious celebrations throughout the year. Visitors and residents alike use it as a center for spiritual practice and community connection.

The building sits in the city center and is easy to reach on foot. Visitors should check opening times in advance and be mindful of appropriate conduct during religious holidays and services.

The dome is clad in copper plates, and the leaded-glass windows carry abstract stained-glass designs. The building was enlarged in September 1991, nearly four decades after its 1952 construction.
