Synanogue in Český Krumlov
The Synanoga or Temple was built in the Neo-Romanesque style with Art Nouveau elements in 1909. It was the first building in the Austro-Hungarian Empire to use reinforced concrete construction.
Architectural pearl
The synagogue is an architectural spectacle that boldly ranks among the other pearls of the South Bohemian region. It was built at the beginning of the 20th century in the Art Nouveau style. The modesty is given by neo-Romanesque elements.
The nave has a typical octagonal shape with a central tower reaching into the sky.
Transcend your spiritual shadow
Today, the synagogue fulfils its religious role to the full by transcending it. In fact, it serves primarily as a meeting place for locals and as a spiritual and social space to promote regional culture and education. It is also open to young families with children, who can enjoy refreshments in the café and play in the playground.
