Rijeka Orthodox Synagogue
Rijeka Orthodox Synagogue, Orthodox synagogue in Rijeka, Croatia
The Rijeka Orthodox Synagogue features a tripartite facade with red brick, stone slabs, and two entrances leading to different sections of the building.
Built in 1931 during the Italian administration of Rijeka, this synagogue survived the Nazi period by being converted into an ammunition storage facility.
The synagogue contains an Italian marble tabernacle gifted by the Jews of Trieste in 1934, which houses the sacred Torah scrolls.
The synagogue, located on Ivan Filipović Street, maintains regular services for approximately one hundred members of the Jewish community in Rijeka.
The interior includes a raised women's gallery overlooking the entrance, following traditional Orthodox Jewish architectural principles for gender separation during services.
