Archaeologists recently discovered the central bimah, or platform, of the Great Synagogue of Vilna, marking a major milestone in efforts to uncover, study and preserve the once-lost site.

The large and magnificent synagogue of Vilna, built in the 17th century in the Renaissance-Baroque style, was the oldest and most significant building of Lithuanian Jewry.

A petition is gaining steam demanding that Netflix be held accountable for filming its hit series 'Stranger Things' in a Nazi prison, which was subsequently turned into themed hotel.

A team of archaeologists is planning to uncover the recently discovered remains of the Great Synagogue of Vilna as a memorial to the great Jewish community of Lithuania.
