Presumably, the Zamenhof family attended this particular synagogue during their stay in Białystok.

In the late 1850s, it was the first synagogue in the city where a choir began to sing, hence its official name "Chorszul".

The building was made of brick, had two storeys, and was covered with a gabled tin roof.

[2] During World War II, the synagogue was in the ghetto's territory.

After the end of the war, it was not rebuilt and in the plot where it stood there is an apartment building.
