Kedainiai is home to three significant synagogues that showcase its rich Jewish heritage: the Old Synagogue, built in the 18th century, currently serving as an arts school and cultural center; the New Synagogue, established in the 19th century, now functioning as a museum and gallery; and the Smilga's Street Synagogue, also from the 19th century, notable for commemorating the renowned Rabbi Vilnius Gaon. Each synagogue stands as a testament to the town's diverse cultural history and vibrant community.
