Centre européen du judaïsme, Jewish cultural center and synagogue in 17th arrondissement, France
The Centre européen du judaïsme is a modern facility that combines a synagogue and cultural exhibition spaces in central Paris. The complex contains a prayer hall, classrooms, conference areas, and galleries dedicated to displaying works and educational content.
The center was built beginning in 2015 and opened as a major landmark for Jewish presence and culture in Paris. Its inauguration represented an important moment for the Jewish community and the city's cultural development.
The center displays Jewish traditions and European Jewish history through exhibitions that offer visitors a direct look at how these customs are practiced and understood. People gather here to connect with their heritage and share in cultural events that celebrate this legacy.
The facility is located at the intersection of two streets in the 17th district and is accessible by public transportation. Programs are offered for all ages both on-site and online, making it possible to visit at various times throughout the year.
The building employs white concrete, metal mesh, and glass to create contemporary architecture that stands apart from traditional religious structures. These modern materials allow light and transparency to define the prayer space in an unexpected way.
