The Oldest Known Synagogue
Seventeenth-century Brest was located at the present site of the Brest fortress, to the south and west of today's city center. In 1657, the city was beseiged by Swedish forces. The artist/architect Erik Dahlberg (b.1625, d.1703) sketched his observations and later produced at least one engraving. This is a portion of The Siege of Brest:

The Siege of Brest, portion of an engraving by Erik Dahlberg. circa 1659

The building marked G slightly to the right of center is identified as Synagoguae Indeorum. This synagogue is said to have been built around 1569. It is described as a brick two-storied building with renaissance features. Histoire du regne de Charles Gustave roy de Suede : comprise en sept commentaires enrichis de tailles douces, by Freiherr Samuel von Pufendorf, published in Nuremburg in 1697 by Christophle Riegel.



Designed, Never Built
This synagogue was intended to be built in central Brest, at the corner of Topolowa and Jagiellonska streets:
