What you'll see
A striking brick synagogue with two onion-domed towers and a vast, richly painted hall. Behind it is a garden with a silver metal willow tree whose leaves carry the names of Holocaust victims.
A brief history
Opened in 1859, it's the largest synagogue in Europe; in the winter of 1944–45 it stood inside the walled ghetto, and thousands who died there are buried in its courtyard.
