The synagogue in Banská Štiavnica was built in 1893. It is located on Novozámocká 5 in Banská Štiavnica. The synagogue itself is made up of the atrial room and the main hall. The building was probably created already in the Gothic period and was later rebuilt into a Renaissance style and only in the 19th century it was only used for sacral purposes after adjustment. The Jewish community was financed by the rebuilding itself. In 1941, sacral activity in this building was suspended and since the 1950s there was a lamp workshop and later a car school. Currently it belongs to the Banská Štiavnice urban reservation and is also included in the UNESCO list as well as the National Cultural Monuments List.
