Great Synagogue, Moorish Revival synagogue in Constanța, Romania.

The Great Synagogue stands at 2 C.A. Rosetti Street, featuring three levels with traditional Jewish decorations and three interior naves divided by columns.

The construction of this religious building occurred between 1910 and 1914, replacing an earlier synagogue that existed from 1867 to 1872 on the same location.

During the interwar period, this synagogue operated alongside the Sephardic Temple, serving the Jewish population of Constanța until its gradual decline.

The building remains in an advanced state of deterioration with three intact walls, partial roof collapse, and requires extensive restoration work announced in 2023.

A tree grows in the middle of the sanctuary, marking the passage of time since the synagogue's last regular religious services.

Inception: 1914
