 This photo was taken during a trip by Percy Berger, with his son, during  the summer of 2001, to revisit his birthplace.

The old synagogue was built with the best materials and was known as a beautiful edifice, especially the inside where, in the tradition of many Lithuanian synagogues, the ceiling was painted a sky blue with clouds and stars.  Today, it is a City Library.  A Wall of Memory Holocaust Memorial to the Jews who died during the Holocaust was erected and dedicated in the building on July 13, 2004.  (Read a
description of this memorial.)
