The Aesopian synagogue was built in 1895.[1] It was designed in Neo-Moorish style by Nikolay Gordenin. Gabriel Yakob Rozenberg, a merchant, financed the building.[1] In 1915 the building was reconstructed by Valerian Rykov. The reconstruction was financed by Vladimir Ginzburg, a nephew of Rozenberg.
In 1929, the synagogue was closed. During the German occupation of Kyiv in World War II, the Nazis converted the building into a horse stable.[2]
Since 1945, the building has again been used as a synagogue. In 1992, Rabbi Yaakov Bleich Chief Rabbi of kyiv and Ukraine was appointed rabbi of the Great Choral Synagogue.
