There was a synagogue in Wielowieś

The synagogue was built in the years 1763-1771 with contributions from Jews from Wieliczka who emigrated abroad. The first record about it comes from 1763, when Salomon Bloch from London sent a letter to Hirsch Bloch from Wielowieś, in which he wrote about the planned construction of this synagogue in the same year. It replaced the older wooden synagogue. During Kristallnacht on November 9-10, 1938, Nazi militias demolished and then set fire to the synagogue building. The interior and the roof were partially destroyed.

After the end of World War II, the synagogue was completely rebuilt into the grain warehouse of the Gmina Spółdzielnia and it has been used as such until today.
