Burgazada Synagogue

Burgazada Synagogue is a synagogue in Istanbul, Turkey. There were few Jewish families in the 1950's in Burgaz (Antigone), but in the 60's the need to have a Synagogue arose and permission was taken in 1968 to build one. It is open for services only during summer months, like the other synagogues of the Princes' Islands. [cite web
