The synagogue in Pinne (Pniewy) was built in 1913 according to the design of Alfred Grotti. During the occupation it was devastated by the Germans. After the war, the building was converted into a cinema. In the process, a two-story facade was built in front, covering the previous one. All the original windows were bricked up. From the east, a small semicircular apse survives, which used to house the niche of the Aron Ha-Kodesh. In more recent times, the building was used as a commercial facility.
