Židovské suburbium Bardejov
The mission of the project „Bardejov suburbium – rescue, recovery and restoration of the Old Synagogue“ is to revive the unique compound of Jewish ritual buildings on Mlynská Street in Bardejov. Thanks to a costly reconstruction and restoration of the synagogue, a multipurpose representative space was created. The main hall of the building is to be the venue for exhibitions, concerts, conferences or lectures. The exhibition in the women’s gallery will draw closer to the history of the Jewish community in Bardejov. The courtyard of the synagogue offers further possibilities of use. The longterm priority is to connect all buildings on the compound, the open spaces and the Holocaust Memorial in one compact zone of World Cultural Heritage, which will serve the needs of Bardejov residents and contribute to the development of cultural tourism.
Within the project of the interior restoration, the following works were carried out:
