The Remah Synagogue, Kraków, Poland – 2025

The Remah Synagogue (Synagoga Remuh), located in Kraków’s historic Kazimierz district, was built in 1553 and remains an active place of worship. Named for Rabbi Moses Isserles — one of Judaism’s foremost halakhic scholars — the synagogue stands beside his grave in the adjacent Remuh Cemetery, one of the oldest surviving Jewish burial grounds in Poland. Captured at night, the building’s quiet dignity and weathered façade echo centuries of Jewish presence, devotion, and endurance in Kraków.
