Choral Synagogue of Vilnius, Art Nouveau synagogue in Old Town, Vilnius, Lithuania
The Choral Synagogue features three arches above the entrance and stained glass windows with detailed designs reflecting Moorish influence throughout the structure.
Built in 1903 by architects Dovydas Rozenhauzas and Aleksejus Polozovas, this synagogue stands as the sole survivor among over 100 synagogues that existed in Vilnius.
The synagogue includes a designated area on the second floor specifically designed for women and the choir, following Orthodox Jewish traditions.
Located at 39 Pylimo Street, the synagogue welcomes visitors Monday through Friday from 10:00 to 15:00, with morning prayers starting at 8:30.
During the Soviet period, the building served as a metal factory until its restoration and reopening as a synagogue in 2010.
