Bielsko Synagogue

The Bielsko Synagogue (Polish: Synagoga w Bielsku) was a former Modern Orthodox Jewish congregation and synagogue, located in Bielsko, in Cieszyn Silesia, in the Silesian Voivodeship of Poland.

Designed by Karol Korn and completed in 1881 in the Moorish Revival and Romanesque Revival styles, the synagogue served as a house of prayer until World War II when it was destroyed by Nazis on 13 September 1939.
