Synagogue listed as a national monument and used as a sports facility in the 1920s.

Its beautiful white façade is a real eye-catcher and it is a listed national monument. The Batumi synagogue is a beautiful religious building used by the city's Ashkenazi Jews since the 20th century. The Jewish community of the time obtained the construction of the synagogue by personally requesting it from Tsar Nicholas II. The synagogue takes its design cues from Dutch synagogues. When Georgia became part of the USSR in the 1920s, the synagogue was closed and used as a sports facility. It was renovated and reopened in 1998.

Elle est ainsi construite en 1904 d'après les plans de Simon (Lev) Volkovich2. Suite l'incorporation de la Géorgie à l'Union soviétique, la synagogue est fermée à la fin des années 1920. Elle est alors utilisée comme installation sportive pendant de nombreuses années. Après l'indépendance de la Géorgie en 1993, l'administration de la ville rend le bâtiment à la communauté juive reconstituée de la ville. La synagogue est ensuite largement rénovée, peinte en blanc puis rouverte en 1998.

En 2011, la synagogue a été ajoutée à la liste des monuments nationaux de Géorgie.
