The Jonava Synagogue of Merchants (Lithuanian: Jonavos pirklių sinagoga) is a former Jewish congregation and synagogue, located at 28 Klaipėdos Street, in Jonava, in the Kaunas District Municipality of Lithuania.
Designed in the Historicist style, the building was completed in 1905 and operated as a synagogue until it was devastated by Nazis during World War II. The building was subsequently used for profane purposes, and has since been repurposed as a shop.[1]
