Designed by Stanisław Majerski and completed in 1890, the synagogue served as a house of prayer until World War II when it was destroyed by Nazis in November 1939.

The interior looked very rich, on the eastern wall there was Aron ha-kodesh, which stood between two boards of the Decalogue.

It was the only synagogue in Przemysl where Polish prayers were prayed and services were held on the occasion of the most important public holidays.

[1] Until the war, the synagogue had a choir led by Kantor Rosenberg, accompanied by organ.

However, unlike twentieth century Reform synagogues, the Temple had a separate women's gallery while men sat on the first floor.
