Located on Föreningsgatan in Malmö, Sweden, the Malmö Synagogue is an Orthodox Jewish congregation built in 1903 and designed by architect John Smedberg. The building uniquely blends Art Nouveau and Moorish Revival styles, a combination that makes it one of Europe's rare surviving Moorish Revival synagogues—most examples of this architectural type were destroyed during Kristallnacht in 1938. Upon its completion, it served as Malmö's first non-Christian place of worship. The city is also home to two Jewish cemeteries, with sections in both Sankt Pauli kyrkogård and Östra kyrkogården. In recent years, the synagogue has attracted approximately 5,000 visitors annually.
