The Choral Temple is a synagogue located in Bucharest, Romania. It is a copy of Vienna’s Leopoldstadt-Tempelgasse Great Synagogue, which was raised in 1855-1858. It was designed by Enderle and Freiwald and built between 1857 – 1867. The synagogue was devastated by the far-right Legionaries, but was then restored after World War II, in 1945.
It still hosts daily religious services in the small hall, being one of the few active synagogues in the city and in Romania,
