The Malbim Synagogue was a former Jewish congregation and synagogue, located at 4 Strada Bravilor, in Bucharest, Romania. The synagogue was completed in 1864 and demolished in 1987.
History
The synagogue was built in 1864 upon the initiative of head rabbi Meir Leibush Wisser and reconstructed in 1912. The building was named after Rabbi Meir Leibish Malbim (1809-1879), being Chief Rabbi of Bucharest and Romania (1858-1864).
The building was devastated by the far-right Legionaries in 1941. The synagogue was rebuilt after World War II; however, in 1987, along with the Spanish Small Temple, the building was demolished to make room for the Union Boulevard in Bucharest.
