Úštěk Synagogue (Czech: Synagoga v Úštěku) is a former Jewish synagogue, located in the town of Úštěk, in the Litoměřice District of the Ústí nad Labem Region, in the Czech Republic. The building has served as a Jewish museum since 2014.

History

The modest, Baroque[1] synagogue is made of sandstone from a nearby quarry. The current structure was built shortly after the previous building was destroyed in a fire in 1793. It was in use until the Second World War. It survived the war, but the adjacent houses were torn down and the synagogue was allowed to deteriorate during the post-war period. The roof decayed, and the interior furnishings were burned.

The building was renovated by the Czech Jewish Federation in a project that began in 1995–2003 and 2010–2014. The synagogue was re-opened to the public in June 2014.[2][3]
