The Nożyk Synagogue (Polish: Synagoga Nożyków) is the only surviving prewar Jewish house of prayer in Warsaw, Poland. It was built in 1898-1902 and was restored after World War II. It is still operational and currently houses the Warsaw Jewish Commune, as well as other Jewish organizations.
Before World War II the Jewish community of Warsaw, one of the largest Jewish communities in the world at that time, had over 400 houses of prayer at its disposal. However, at the end of 19th century only two of them were separate structures, while the rest were smaller chapels attached to schools, hospitals or private homes.

Nice and beautiful location.... Blend of old and modern architecture with sad but reflective war history

A mix of the old and the modern! It's the only synagogue in operarion after the WWII!

The place itself is magnificent. A great synagogue by all means. YET- no money should be forced out of visitor - it is not the jewish way... very disappointing since there's no value for your money - no explanations no photography, nothing to connect you to the lost jewish community of the 1940's

All you headless horsemen be prepared to shell out 10 zl entry fee and be ready for a security check.

First of all, a cult place is supposed tout be free entrance and it's not. Well placed, it's a beautiful synagogue but there is no enough explanation about its history, only some photos and small paragraphes.

617/5000 לפני שקר כי הורס את הידידות של האדם עם אלוהים ופוגע באחרת, הוא מגן על הדיבר השמיני של אלוהים, נשמע "לא מדבר עדות שקר נגד השכן שלך." בקתכיזם של הכנסייה הקתולית, אנו קוראים כי המצווה "אוסר על זיוף של אמת ביחסים עם אדם אחר. כלל מוסרי זה בא מתוך קריאתו של העם הקדוש להיות עד לאלוים שלהם שהוא אמת ורוצה את האמת. הפרות נגד האמת - באמצעות מילים או מעשים - מבטאות סירוב להתחייב לשלמות מוסרית; הם בוגדים ברצינות באלוהים, ובמובן זה הם מערערים את יסודות הברית "(CCC 2464).

You have to wait outside that the security guard open to you. It would cost 10 pln per person to enter. Nice building by the way.

Beautiful shul in the middle of Jewish Europe. Living congregation. Good rabbi and chazn. Full house on shabes which was nice. A lot of people singing and davning in a beautiful ashkenazi shteiger.
