Synagogue de Rouen, Orthodox Jewish synagogue in Rouen, France.

The synagogue stands at 55 rue des Bons-Enfants, featuring a quadrangular design with stained glass windows created by artist Gabriel Loire.

Following the destruction of previous Jewish places of worship, architect François Herr completed this modern synagogue structure on December 17, 1950.

The congregation follows Sephardic traditions and maintains connections with the Israelite Central Consistory of France, serving approximately 250 families.

Visitors can observe the memorial at the entrance that commemorates the Jewish community members who were deported during World War II.

The building received the 'Contemporary Architecture' designation in 2001 for its distinctive modern design and religious architectural elements.
