Gaziantep Synagogue, also known as the Great Synagogue of Gaziantep, is a synagogue located in Gaziantep in south-central Turkey. It was closed after the last remaining members of Gaziantep's Jewish population left the city in the 1970s and was in a state of disrepair. Through the collaboration between the Jewish community in Turkey and the government, the synagogue was restored in 2012. In 2014 it was opened to visitors. In December 2019 a Hannukah celebration with 200 people was held.[1][2][3]
The synagogue is a two-story, stone building large enough to accommodate several hundred worshippers. The date of its construction is unknown.[4]
