Rafi'-Nia synagogue
Rafi'nia Synagogue, also known as the Mashhadi Synagogue or the Khorasani Synagogue of Tehran, was a synagogue of the Jewish community in Tehran, Iran. It was destroyed in an attack by the Israeli military during the 2026 Iran war. It was located on Valiasr Street, Bozorgmehr Street, Freyman Street, Malek Alley, near Taleghani Street and Palestine Street, and one building away from the former Israeli Embassy in Tehran. This synagogue, along with the Azizkhan, Levian, and Nosrat synagogues, was among the synagogues of the Khorasani Association. Its name is derived from the Rafī'nia family, one of the Jewish service families from the Mashhadi community.
