Until now, we only had period illustrations of the interior, lost when the shul damaged by Nazi bombardment was demolished by the Soviets in the 1950s. For about a decade now archaeologists from the Israeli Antiquities Authority in cooperation with Lithuanian archaeologists from the Department of Cultural Heritage have been excavating the Shulhoyf, and last year and this they’re reached the floor of the main hall and uncovered most of the meter-high <em>bimah</em>, the central point in the main hall.</p> 364<p style="text-align: justify;">Their discoveries have inspired an exhibit of artworks by Lithuanian EglÄ RidikaitÄ called Depositions at the St. George the Martyr Church, K. Sirvydo street no. 4, in Vilnius, which opened May 14 and runs till October 3. Admission is from 5 to 10 euros and is payable by card only.</p> 365<p style="text-align: justify;">“EglÄ RidikaitÄâs exhibition, through an unexpected artistic gesture, weaves together sites of faith, painful historical experiences, and a sense of present vulnerability. With striking clarity, serenity, and simplicity, Depositions unfolds as a silent yet conceptually dense narrative about the city. It invites us to experience, simultaneously, the layered histories of prewar Jewish and Christian Vilnius, while tracing processes of survival and extinction, life and its erasure in memory.</p> 366 </div> 367 368 369 370 <div class="entry-meta-bar clearfix"> 371 <div class="entry-meta"> 372 <span class="posted-on"><a href="https://www.lzb.lt/en/2026/09/23/floor-of-great-synagogue-inspires-art-exhibition/" rel="bookmark"><time class="entry-date published" datetime="2026-09-23T15:19:45+03:00">2026-09-23</time><time class="updated" datetime="2026-09-23T15:43:56+03:00">2026-09-23</time></a></span> <!-- <span class="category"></span> --> 373 374 375 <!-- <span class="comments"></span> --> 376 </div><!-- .entry-meta --> 377 378 <!-- Show read more --> 379 <a class="readmore" href="https://www.lzb.lt/en/2026/09/23/floor-of-great-synagogue-inspires-art-exhibition/" title="Floor of Great Synagogue Inspires Art Exhibition">Read more</a> 380 <!-- Show read more for custom link --> 381 382 383 </div> 384 385 386 </article> 387 </section> 388 <section id="post-117406" class="post-117406 post type-post status-publish format-standard has-post-thumbnail hentry category-antisemitism category-news category-religion"> 389 <article> 390 391 392 393 394 <figure class="post-featured-image"><a href="https://www.lzb.lt/en/2026/09/23/ontario-synagogue-shooter-dead/" title="Ontario Synagogue Shooter Dead"><img width="670" height="300" src="https://www.lzb.lt/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/default-670x300.jpg" class="attachment-featured size-featured wp-post-image" alt="Ontario Synagogue Shooter Dead" title="Ontario Synagogue Shooter Dead" /></a></figure> <header class="entry-header"> 395 <h2 class="entry-title"> 396 <a href="https://www.lzb.lt/en/2026/09/23/ontario-synagogue-shooter-dead/" title="Ontario Synagogue Shooter Dead">Ontario Synagogue Shooter Dead</a> 397 </h2><!-- .entry-title --> 398 </header> 399 400 <div class="entry-content clearfix"> 401 <p><strong>Photo</strong>: Ian MacAlpine/The Canadain Press</p> 402<p style="text-align: justify;">A man drove up in a pick-up truck to the Sons of Jacob Synagogue in Belleville, Ontario, Sunday evening during Yom Kippur services and opened fire on an off-duty Belleville Police Service constable working as a security guard there as he sat in his vehicle.</p> 403<p style="text-align: justify;">Police say the man, 29-year-old Sean Ward who lived in nearby Quinte West and served in the Canadian armed forces in Alberta, joining in 2017 and leaving in 2022 at the rank of corporal, was hit b
