The Beit Medrash Hagadol Synagogue (Lithuanian: Beit Midrash Hagadol sinagoga), also known as the White Synagogue of Jonava (Lithuanian: Jonavos Baltoji sinagoga),[3] is a former Jewish congregation and synagogue, located at 3 Sodų Street, in Jonava, in the Kaunas District Municipality of Lithuania.
