The Trondheim Synagogue (Norwegian: Synagogen i Trondheim) in Trondheim, Norway is the second-northernmost synagogue in the world (after the synagogue in Fairbanks, Alaska[1]). The present synagogue has served the Jewish community since its inauguration on October 13, 1925. It was built to replace the first synagogue in Trondheim, the St Jørgensveita Synagogue, which was opened in 1899.
History
The synagogue was originally Orthodox, but is no longer. There is no longer separate seating for men and women. The synagogue still has a gallery where the women once sat separately.[2]
