History
On August 24, 1905, the inhabitants of Tsaritsyn turned to the construction department of the Saratov province with a request to build a house of worship. In June 1906, the proposed project was rejected, as it made mistakes in the load distribution of the dome. On January 24, the project was amended and approved, and in 1911 the construction was completed.
In 1926-1928 a stone fence with an iron gate was erected. The front door was also built, the sidewalk was paved, and a garden was built.
By the decision of the Executive Committee of Stalingrad on November 17, 1929, the synagogue was closed, deciding to give it to the club. However, for a long time she was empty.
Architecture
The synagogue is a brick building with a basement, rectangular in plan, with rich facade decoration. All facades are divided into three sections, the middle of which is wider than the side. Between the lower and upper tiers there is a significant removal of the cornice with modulons. Expressiveness is achieved by an abundance of windows with rich design.
During the construction of the synagogue, metal structures new for that time were used (cast-iron columns, Monier arches).
