The Orthodox Synagogue

The Orthodox Synagogue charms you with its Moorish construction style and impresses with the peace and tranquillity permeating from within. The church of Jewish faith followers was built in 1926 but being devastated and destroyed in the period between the two world wars by the legionary.

The Orthodox Synagogue facade is decorated with ceramic mosaic illustrating plant elements and capturing a rare aspect of the decorative art for synagogues in Romania, namely the two lions. This building is composed of a ritual bath, and a central cemetery on Closca Street. Stretched over an area of ??365 m?, this was the praying place for the Jews in Brasov, whose number has been steadily declining at the end of the war, many of them emigrating towards Palestine. Even if the interior cannot be visited, even if it is not currently consolidated, you can stop on number 64 Castle Street and look through the gate at the Orthodox Synagogue.
