Lesko Synagogue

The manneristic-baroque synagogue built in the 17th century and ruined during World War II. After the war it was renovated and designated as gallery and museum.

Lesko Synagogue is the stone building founded on rectangle’s plan. The row of gables decorated with vases (sensation in Poland) is worth noticing.
Because of vast destruction it is hard to speak about the 17th century style of the temple (the interior and exterior alike). One of the most interesting remains is the Aron ha-kodesh framing – taking the Ark from the Golden Synagogue in Lviv as its model.
