The Czernowitz Synagogue, built in 1873 in Czernowitz (now Chernivtsi, Ukraine) during the Austro-Hungarian period, was a Reform Jewish synagogue designed by architect Julian Zachariewicz in the Moorish Revival style. Following its closure in 1940, the building was repurposed as a movie theater beginning in 1959 before being demolished in 1941.
