Hechal Yehuda Synagogue, Orthodox Synagogue in Old North, Tel Aviv, Israel.

The Hechal Yehuda Synagogue features a seashell-shaped structure made of concrete with a north facade decorated with Jewish symbols and motifs.

The synagogue, completed in 1980, was built to honor the Jewish community of Thessaloniki that perished during World War II.

The interior contains stained glass windows by Josef Shealtiel depicting Israeli holidays and Shabbat celebrations across separate men's and women's sections.

The synagogue accommodates 600 worshippers across two floors, with 400 seats for men and 200 for women in designated prayer areas.

The building's structure eliminates the need for internal pillars, creating an open space where sound travels naturally throughout the dome.
