It’s great! I remember the time when my grandfather , together with other old people, had to go to pray secretly to somebody’s house. I am happy the synagogue returned to life.

It is absolutely beautiful.
I wonder how much of its beauty is new and how much is original.
The mikva is new? It looks MUCH nicer than the last one I went to!

Beautiful building

What a beautiful building, but why stick the woman in a hidden gallery in the back of the shul. It is like they are second class citizens peeking between tiny holes in a fence to see the Torah and hear the davening? The women’s section should be as equally as beautiful as the men’s section.
Congratulations to the shluchim in Kherson for building this beautiful edifice.

awesome

I grew up in Kherson literally just across the street from this shul. It was a rehab center for alcoholics under Soviet rule. I knew there was a shul there before, but i didn’t know that was a Chabad shul I don’t think I knew what Chabad was then. On the same street a little further down they had a philharmonic concert hall which was a shul in the past and a few others. Boruch Hashem it is back to being a shul!
