Summary and Remarks

Note by S. Kravtsov, Thursday, May 05, 2011

The synagogue was called Ha-Sira, probably for the close proximity to the river. The synagogue was partially ruined, and fixed in a number of stages in halftimber and brick. Today is a dwelling. The local tenant pretended it used to be a hospital, the Jewish community rejects this statement.
