Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Infobox religious building

The Cold Synagogue (Шаблон:Lang-yi, Шаблон:Lang-be) was a masonry synagogue located in the center of Minsk on what is now Niamiha Street. It was not used as a place of study and therefore was not heated, which is why it received the name "Cold".[1] The synagogue is considered the oldest in Minsk.[2]

History

The building was erected in 1570, though it is assumed that it housed an Orthodox church,[2][3] and only in 1796 the building was bought by the Jewish community, rebuilt and renovated. However, in architectural terms, this structure was originally characteristic of synagogues of that era.

The building was in the Romanesque style.[4]

In 1930, the synagogue was closed.[3]

In 1944, after the liberation of Minsk from the German occupation, the synagogue was again handed over to believing Jews for a short time.[3]

In 1965, the synagogue, although a protected monument, was demolished on the order of Petr Masherov, the leader of Soviet Byelorussia.[5] The destruction occurred as part of the reconstruction of this district of Minsk.[3][2] The destruction was attributable both to state antisemitism in Soviet Union as well as a more general disregard by Soviet authorities in 1950s and 1960s for historic preservation:[5] much of Old Town Minsk was destroyed in the 1960s reconstruction of Minsk in a socialist urban style.[4] The old synagogue building was next to the planned site for the Belarusian State Institute for Industrial Design.[4]
