The Great Synagogue (Polish: Wielka Synagoga w Piotrkowie Trybunalskim) was a former Orthodox Jewish congregation and synagogue, located at 29 Jerizilimska Street, in Piotrków Trybunalski, in the Łódź Voivodeship of Poland. Designed by David Friedlander and completed in 1793, the synagogue served as a house of prayer until World War II when it was desecrated by Nazis.
After the war, the building was renovated and repurposed as a county library. Although plundered during World War II, the building is the best preserved synagogue in the Łódź region and one of the best preserved in Poland.
