Beit Hamidrash – House of Study
Beit Hamidrash – House of Study
Beth Hamidrash, v preklade dom štúdia, bola budova postavená židovskou komunitou v druhej polovici 19. storočia. Pôvodne slúžila predovšetkým na štúdium Tóry a ďalších židovských náboženských textov. Neskôr bola prestavaná na modlitebňu a na poschodí k nej bola pristavaná women's gallery. Budova zároveň obsahuje ďalšie prvky typické pre synagogálnu architektúru.
On the eastern facade, set among six Neo-Gothic windows, is a blind window that once marked the interior location of the Torah ark, the Aron Kodesh
In the lower part of the building, inscriptions and drawings on the walls have been preserved, left here by people gathered in the building during the first wave of deportations of Bardejov Jews in 1942. Their names, street names, and other drawings were discovered during restoration and managed to be preserved. They represent a rare authentic testimony about the people who were concentrated at this very place before the deportations.
As a result of the ongoing cooperation with UZZNO, Beit Hamidrash was vacated in June 2016 and restoration work began at the end of 2022. The construction concluded at the beginning of 2024.
