Address: Miodowa 24 , Kraków

The Progressive Synagogue, also known as the Tempel Synagogue ('' neo-Romanesque synagogue of progressive Jews '') is located at Miodowa Street 24. The building was designed by Ignacy Hercok, and it was built in the years 1860 - 1862. It served as a place of worship until World War II as a synagogue for '' Progressive Jews '' - recognizing the Jewish community, not as a separate people, but only as a religious group, thus denying Jewish messianism. In the early 1890s, the synagogue was rebuilt according to the design of Benjamin Torbe. The building has an eclectic character with a clear dominance of the Neo-Roman style. The synagogue building has a three-axis facade. In 1924, one-story aisles shorter than the entire temple building were added. During the German occupation, the synagogue building served as a warehouse, and a horse stable was built in the northern nave. After the end of World War II, the temple returned to its former functions, services were regularly held, which also served Jewish traditionalists. Inside the synagogue, you can see the marble ark in the apse, painting and stucco decoration, and characteristic stained glass windows created since 1894. In the years 1995–2000 a thorough renovation of the synagogue took place, the effects of which can be admired to this day. It is possible to visit the object at a symbolic fee for renovation of the temple during opening hours: from Monday to Friday from 10.00 to 16.00 and on Sunday from 10.00 to 16.00.
