The preserved synagogue in Solotvin was apparently built in the late 19th century. Today it is used as a storage.

A protruding on the eastern façade indicated the interior placement of the Torah ark. The division of windows into an eastern prayer hall and western vestibule with women's section above it is preserved. The original interior is completely lost.

On June 14, 1903, a service for the victims of the Kishinev pogrom was held in the town's synagogue. It was accompanied by a choir of the students from the Baron Hirsch school. The school's director, Händler, gave a speech, comparing the recent pogrom with the Khmelnitsky massacre of the seventeenth century (Die Welt, no. 26, 26 June 1903, p. 9).

Condition:
