Main Synagogue

TIME : 2016/2/18 23:22:01

Radom was a significant Jewish settlement, and the Jewish community here numbered around 30,000 just before WWII (about a quarter of the population). Unfortunately, few Jews survived the war and little of that heritage remains. Most Jews lived in the area around the (now very dilapidated) Rynek. Near here, you’ll find four stones and a small memorial that mark where the main synagogue once stood.
