The synagogue (4th-7th century AD). It is yet unknown since when there has been a Jewish community in Priene. The synagogue itself was probably in use from the 4th to the 7th century AD. The identification results from the typical layout of the building, the depiction of the menorah on several architectural elements as well as a bas-relief showing religious symbols. The latter was found in the square niche at the east wall.
