Synagoga Pod Białym Bocianem Concerts 2024-2025

As well as the synagogue itself, which you can view from balconies, there are a couple of floors of Jewish museum, one focused on artifacts from the Jewish community in Wroclaw and around Poland (silverwear, books etc), and another with information about the treatment of Jews historically, and in Poland post war and post 1989. Plenty of info in English, free entry, worth an hour of your time. My favourite learning is that the WWII era King of Denmark used to purposefully wear a yellow badge, and encouraged all Danes to do likewise so the Nazis found it harder to identify Jews . I don't know if it connected, but I understand Denmark's jews were not cleared as in other occupied parts of europe.

We went there on Friday day time. The Synagogue was closed but alone the square with its tragic and dark history is a must visit in Wroclaw!

Majestic synagogue which is a witness to the Breslau/Wrocław Jewish history. There is a small exhibition you can visit (mikveh and the synagogue itself).

The synagogue has dual function, it is still a synagogue where there are services on main holidays like Yom Kippur or Pesach and it works as a museum of Jewish History in Silesia as well, a temporary exibition can be found on "Ezrat Nashim", the lady's area. The complex has a restaurant, a cafe and a few meters away a Jewish Information Centre. Two weeks ago the new mikve - ritual bath - was opened and there are frequent community events on the premises.

The only synagogue in Wrocław to escape the torches of Kristallnacht, the White Stork was built in 1829, taking its name from the inn that once stood in its place. Following the design of prominent German architect Karl Ferdinand Langhans, it is ironically considered a sterling example of 18th century Protestant sacral art. Discreetly hidden from view in a courtyard between ul. Antoniego and ul. Włodkowica, today the surrounding grounds are full of beer gardens, bohemians, and tourists; however, it was here that members of the Jewish community were rounded up for deployment to the death camps during WWII.
