Synagogue of Alanta

Lithuania

The Synagogue of Alanta (Lithuanian: Alantos sinagoga) is a former Jewish congregation and synagogue, located at 3a Ukmergės Street, in Alanta, in the Molėtai District Municipality, in the Utena County of Lithuania. A wooden synagogue that was designed in the Romantic style, the building operated as a synagogue from the mid-19th century until it was devastated by Nazis in 1941. Subsequently used for profane purposes, the building was restored during 2021 and now operates as a cultural center. The Alanta synagogue is one of 17 former wooden synagogues remaining in Lithuania.
