The Arlon Synagogue is synagogue the Belgian town of Arlon. Built in 1863 and inaugurated in 1865, it was the first synagogue built in Belgium.[1] Today religious services are rare, as the majority of Jews have left Arlon.
The synagogue was spared destruction during the Second World War, but the building was turned into a straw depot.[2] The synagogue's concierge kept the Torah scroll safe during the war.
In 2005, the synagogue was classified as a Major Heritage Building of Wallonia.[3]
Between 2014 and 2019, the synagogue was closed, requiring major structural renovations.[4] [5]
