Targowa 50/52 Synagogue in Warsaw, Jewish prayer house in Praga district, Warsaw, Poland.

The synagogue occupies two small rooms totaling 50 square meters on the ground floor of an annex at Targowa Street 50/52.

The prayer house, first documented in 1869 under Szmul Ekstein's name, served local residents and merchants until World War II disrupted Jewish life.

The eastern room contains a decorative frieze displaying zodiac signs from the Hebrew calendar, while the western room shows Jews at the Wailing Wall.

The prayer rooms now form part of the permanent exhibition at the Praga Museum of Warsaw, displaying historical Jewish religious artifacts.

The building contains one of only two known surviving synagogue paintings in the Mazovia region of Poland.
