Cetate Synagogue
Sinagoga din Cetate
A Moorish Revival synagogue built in 1865, instantly recognizable by its red and yellow striped brick walls, now restored as a venue for cultural events.
The synagogue was designed by a Viennese architect, blending Moorish and Romanesque elements, and was once one of the most important synagogues in the Banat. After the Jewish community declined, it stood empty for many years. It has recently been restored and now hosts concerts, exhibitions and other cultural events. Interior opening hours are limited, so check the event schedule. The exterior alone is worth seeing; it lies northwest of Liberty Square and is within walking distance.
