Fabric Synagogue

The Fabric Synagogue (Sinagoga din Fabric), also called the New Synagogue, is a former Neolog Jewish congregation and synagogue, located at 2 Ion Luca Caragiale Street, in the Fabric district of Timișoara, Romania. Designed by Lipót Baumhorn in an eclectic mixture of Moorish Revival, Gothic Revival and Renaissance Revival stylistic elements, the synagogue was completed in 1899. The synagogue is included on the National Register of Historic Monuments in Romania, and, in 2022, was placed on the World Monuments Fund list of buildings deemed at particularly high risk. The New Synagogue replaced the old synagogue on Timocului Street. Not used as a synagogue since 1985, the building fell into disrepair and as of August 2024, the building was undergoing restoration by the Timișoara City Hall for use as a cultural center.
