The Nomer Tamid Synagogue (Polish: Synagoga Nomer Tamid w Białymstoku; Hebrew: בית כנסת נומר תמיד, lit.'Synagogue of the Eternal Flame'), also known as the Nomer Tamid Beth Midrash or Ner Tamid Beth Midrasz, was a former Orthodox Jewish congregation and wooden synagogue, that was located in Białystok, in the Podlaskie Voivodeship of Poland.[citation needed]

Completed in 1703 or 1711, the synagogue served as a house of prayer until World War II when it was destroyed by Nazis in 1939.[citation needed]

Funding for the building was provided by Jan Klemens Branicki. The former synagogue was located on Bóżniczej Street, across from the Old Synagogue and the Great Synagogue.[citation needed]
