The Fabric Orthodox Synagogue (Romanian: Sinagoga Ortodoxă din Fabric) is a former Orthodox Jewish synagogue, located at 16 Ion Creangă Street, in the Fabric district of Timișoara, Romania. It was built between 1885 and 1889 for the Autonomous Orthodox Jewish Community.[1] The synagogue is referred to as the "Orthodox Synagogue" to distinguish it from the New Synagogue also located in Fabric.
