The Łańcut Synagogue is a Baroque synagogue in Łańcut, Poland. The Łańcut Synagogue is a rare surviving example of the four-pillar, vaulted synagogues that were built throughout the Polish lands in both wood and masonry from the sixteenth through the early nineteenth centuries. The synagogue was renovated in the mid-20th century, and underwent renovations in the years 1983-1990. The first wooden synagogue in Łańcut, built in 1610, was destroyed by fire in the beginning of the second half of the 18th century. The new synagogue was established by Stanisław Lubomirski. The building, located on Jana III Sobieskiego Street adjacent to the grounds of the Baroque Lubomirski Castle, was built in 1761.
