The Krnov Synagogue is a Moorish Revival structure completed in 1871 on Soukenická Street in Krnov, Czech Republic, designed by architect Ernst Latzel. One of only three surviving synagogue buildings in the Moravian-Silesian Region, it stands alongside those at Nový Jičín and Český Těšín as a rare remnant of Jewish architectural heritage in the area. Originally built for religious worship, the synagogue was converted to an exhibition and concert hall in 2003 and underwent substantial restoration by 2014. Today it is recognized as a cultural monument of the Czech Republic.
