The synagogue stands on a rectangular plan with dimensions of 12.6 by 22.8 m, with an outbuilding intended for the women’s prayer part, on a quadrilateral plan with approximate dimensions of 5.4 by 11.80 m. The building was covered with a six-slope roof. Inside, on the eastern wall, there is a wooden Aron Kodesh (cabinet for Torah scrolls). The lighting was provided by tall, arched windows.
The photo was taken by Wojciech Wilczyk in February 2008. The photographer captured the condition of the former synagogue before the renovation works began. At that time, the building was ruined, with a devastated interior, neglected façade and windows temporarily bricked up.
