Nożyk Synagogue, Orthodox synagogue in Śródmieście, Warsaw, Poland.

The Nożyk Synagogue exhibits neo-Romanesque architecture with a central dome, twin towers, and decorative elements on its limestone and brick facade.

Built between 1898 and 1902, this synagogue remains the sole Jewish prayer house from over 400 that existed in Warsaw before World War II.

Regular religious services, celebrations of Jewish festivals, and community gatherings maintain Jewish traditions in the heart of Warsaw.

The synagogue contains 600 seats and includes a shop where visitors can purchase kosher products throughout the week.

During World War II, German forces converted the building into horse stables, yet it endured and returned to its religious function.
