The wooden synagogue in Burzenin (at the corner of Widawska Street and Dolna Street) was built in the middle of the 19th century. After the fire in 1930, Jews built a new brick synagogue in Kościelna Street.
During World War II the Germans destroyed it. After the war the building was restored and used as a workshop. Currently it stands empty.
The synagogue was in a rectangular shape.
