Synagogue in Volodymyr-Volynskyi

The synagogue stood as a central religious structure in the northeastern part of Volodymyr-Volynskyi, featuring architectural elements typical of Eastern European Jewish buildings.

The synagogue served as the main Jewish prayer house until World War II, when the local Jewish community faced persecution, and the building was later demolished in 1950.

The synagogue represented a focal point for Jewish life during the late 19th century, when Jews made up 60 percent of the city's population.

The original location of the synagogue can be found through geographical coordinates at 50.845833 latitude and 24.32 longitude in the city center.

The synagogue walls demonstrated such structural strength that military tank carriers were required for their demolition in the early 1950s.
