Łańcut Synagogue, Baroque synagogue in Łańcut, Poland

The synagogue features a main hall with eight barrel vaults surrounding a central Bimah supported by four substantial masonry pillars decorated with painted plasterwork.

The brick synagogue, completed in 1761 with support from Prince Stanisław Lubomirski, replaced an earlier wooden structure that burned down in 1733.

The interior walls display reproductions of 18th-century paintings depicting traditional Jewish themes, including Noah and the Ark, zodiac symbols, and biblical instruments.

Located at 17 Sobieskiego Street, the synagogue now functions as a Jewish museum where visitors can explore exhibitions about regional Jewish heritage.

The building represents one of the few remaining examples of vaulted synagogues with a bimah-tower constructed between the 16th and early 19th centuries.
