6 Mickiewicza Street in Konin

The synagogue at 6 Mickiewicza Street exhibits classical architectural elements with a central prayer hall and detailed stone craftsmanship on its exterior walls.

Built between 1825 and 1832, the synagogue replaced a wooden structure from 1763 and served the Jewish community until German forces used it as a stable in 1939.

The synagogue reflects the presence of Jewish life in Konin, where 3,400 Jewish residents constituted half of the town's population during the 1880s.

The building stands at coordinates 52.211, 18.252 in central Konin, with current ownership in private hands while maintaining protected monument status.

The German forces did not destroy this synagogue during World War II, making it one of the few surviving Jewish religious structures in the region.
