The Main Synagogue and Jewish school on Tongjiang Street
The synagogue and school began as neighboring institutions: the synagogue yard held a school by 1903, followed by a full-time Jewish school in 1907.
Harbin’s Main Synagogue and Jewish School occupy neighboring spaces within one protected boundary. The courtyard makes their relationship visible, while each institution retains a separate history within the city’s Jewish community and present-day street grid.
