A Jewish landmark in Wroclaw. A must see site. There is a very cool yard attached to it with some restaurants. Nice to go there in the night as well.

The only synagogue in Wrocław to escape the torches of Kristallnacht, the White Stork was built in 1829, taking its name from the inn that once stood in its place. Following the design of prominent German architect Karl Ferdinand Langhans, it is ironically considered a sterling example of 18th century Protestant sacral art. Discreetly hidden from view in a courtyard between ul. Antoniego and ul. Włodkowica, today the surrounding grounds are full of beer gardens, bohemians, and tourists; however, it was here that members of the Jewish community were rounded up for deployment to the death camps during WWII.

The synagogue has dual function, it is still a synagogue where there are services on main holidays like Yom Kippur or Pesach and it works as a museum of Jewish History in Silesia as well, a temporary exibition can be found on "Ezrat Nashim", the lady's area. The complex has a restaurant, a cafe and a few meters away a Jewish Information Centre. Two weeks ago the new mikve - ritual bath - was opened and there are frequent community events on the premises.

Only surviving synagogue in Wroclaw, worth visit at a small entry fee or even better during a concert or other cultural event. Only recently repaired.

Clear and well presented history of Jewish life in the region. The synagogue is now a cultural centre, but is closed on Shabbos and Yom Tov.

Interesting museum. I supposed it would be more of a synagogue, though.

I stumbled upon this synagogue while on a trip to Wroclaw. I was admiring the exterior while my friends were inside the nearby bar, on a late Friday evening. The security guard opened to the door to ask (in Polish) if I needed anything and I tried to explain that I was just looking. He was SO NICE and brought me in after hours to show me the space. This was my first time in a synagogue and even though he spoke no English and I spoke my Polish, my experience was incredibly moving. I can't say enough great things about this gracious man.
