The Choral Synagogue in Drohobych, Ukraine—also known as the Great Synagogue—was an Ashkenazi Orthodox Jewish place of worship built in 1865 and situated on Pylypa Orlyka Street in Lviv Oblast. Designed in the Vienna Secession style, it represented the architectural aspirations of the region's Jewish community during the late nineteenth century. The building stood as a local cultural heritage monument of architectural significance until its demolition in 1941.
