Old Synagogue in Tarnów, 17th-century synagogue ruins in Tarnów, Poland.
The remaining bimah stands as a four-pillared stone podium in a green space between Jewish Street and Fish Square in central Tarnów.
Built in 1630 with wooden materials, the synagogue underwent reconstruction in brick during 1670 and served the Jewish community until its destruction in 1939.
The synagogue grounds host the annual Galician Shtetl Jewish Memory Days festival in June, featuring concerts and educational programs about Jewish heritage.
Visitors can access the preserved bimah structure throughout the year and discover information about Jewish history through guided tours from local tourism offices.
The four-pillared bimah remains the sole surviving element of the original synagogue, protected since 1987 by a specially constructed roof.
