Synagogue in Orla

The Orla synagogue features Renaissance architectural elements, including stone columns, remnants of wall paintings displaying vegetal patterns, and a classical facade with two columns.

Built in the second quarter of the 17th century, the synagogue received brick women's galleries a century later and endured significant damage during the 1938 fire.

The synagogue building currently functions as a venue for concerts, educational programs, and Jewish cultural festivals, maintaining its connection to local heritage.

A digital interactive experience enables visitors worldwide to explore both interior and exterior spaces of the synagogue through virtual navigation tools.

Archaeological research revealed the existence of a wooden synagogue at this location before the construction of the current stone structure.
