Great Synagogue, Orthodox Jewish synagogue in Tbilisi, Georgia.
The Great Synagogue stands 14 meters tall with a length of 24.5 meters and features a combination of Moorish and Romanesque revival architectural styles.
Construction of the synagogue began in 1904 after Jewish migrants from Akhaltsikhe demolished their previous house of worship that had fallen into disrepair.
The synagogue maintains traditional Georgian Jewish rituals and serves as a central gathering place for religious ceremonies and community celebrations throughout the year.
Located at 45-47 Kote Afkhazi Street in central Tbilisi, the synagogue includes facilities such as a mikveh ritual bath for ceremonial purification.
The interior of the synagogue contains recently renovated gold and blue frescoes that reflect the integration of local Georgian and traditional Jewish artistic elements.
