The Status Quo Ante Synagogue is a historic synagogue located in Trnava, Slovakia. Constructed in 1897 for the local Status Quo Ante Jewish community, it was designed by the Vienna-based architect Jakob Gartner in a blend of neo-Romanesque and historicist styles, featuring a distinctive twin-towered façade. The building served the community until World War II, after which it fell into disrepair and was used as a warehouse before suffering fire damage in 1986. Restored in the 1990s and again in 2015–2016, it now functions as the Center for Contemporary Art within the Ján Koniarek Gallery, with a Holocaust memorial at the entrance commemorating the local Jewish victims.

The route assumes the first day starts at noon, after you land, and the last ends at noon, before your flight. It is an example: with your dates the planner builds a route around your landing and your flight home, real opening hours, how you get around and your own preferences.
