Interesting place and experience of history of Polish Jews
Interesting view into the history of Poland's Jewish community prior to WWII. One of the larger synagogues in this part of Poland, which unfortunately exists only as a museum as the Jewish population is almost non-existent in this area.
Very interesting and sombre place. It is atmospheric because it is in an excellent state of preservation. The audio guides are useful and informative. Well worth a visit. Also try the restaurant next door for excellent, good value food, and great service.
Beautiful and haunting place to come to, particularly after a short visit to Bialystok. The area around the synagogue was being refurbished when we were there and promises to be a big improvement for access and general conservation when finished. Well done to those carrying out the momentous good works in the past years. The audio guide is in multiple languages and very good, but with one (in my opinion) unfortunate omission; no indication of the fate of the synagogue's congregation. OK, so we can assume it is common knowledge; but to my mind, a final mention of the awful fate of the population who used this place of worship would provide good context for visitors. Finally, for those wishing to pay their respects, an indication of where the last resting place is located would not go amiss.
