Batumi Synagogue, Orthodox Jewish synagogue in Batumi, Georgia
The Batumi Synagogue is a house of worship featuring white walls and large stained-glass windows located in the old town. Its style draws inspiration from European synagogues in the Netherlands and blends architectural elements from different traditions.
The building was constructed between 1900 and 1904 with permission from Tsar Nicholas II. Architect Simon Volkovich designed it specifically for the local Jewish community of the time.
This synagogue serves as a gathering place for the Jewish community during holidays and religious observances. It reflects the revival of Jewish life in the region after decades of suppression.
The building sits on Vazha-Pshavela Street in the historic old town and is easily reached on foot. It is accessible and makes for a good visit at any time throughout the year.
During the Soviet era, the building was converted into a sports hall and lost its original purpose. It was not returned and restored to its religious function until 1993.
