Wolf Popper Synagogue

The Wolf Popper Synagogue (Polish: Synagoga Wolfa Poppera), also known as the Bociana Synagogue (Polish: Synagoga Bociana) and Little Synagogue (Polish: Synagoga Mała), is a historic former Jewish congregation and synagogue, located at 16 Szeroka Street, in Kazimierz, the former district of Kraków,

Poland. Founded by the eponymous Wolf Popper and completed in 1620, the synagogue served as a house of prayer until it went into decline after the passing of its founder and chief benefactor. The former Popper Synagogue serves as bookshop and also as an art gallery in the women's area upstairs.
