Poland: Wroclaw's White Stork Synagogue Restoration Complete, Re-Dedication Set for May

(ISJM) The long-awaited restoration of the interior of the historic White Stork Synagogue in Wroclaw has been completed. Gazeta Wroclawska newspaper reports that the synagogue is to be rededicated in May, with the interior furnishings will be installed in April. It's taken about 20 years to complete this project.
