No. A synagogue has only seats (or floor cushions in some cultures) for the

congregants to sit on during a service, an ark or covered alcove in which the

Torah scroll is stored when it's not being read, and a table upon which the

Torah is placed and opened for reading, and upon which the individual leading

the service may rest his prayer book. Anything else in a synagogue is local

style, decoration, ambience, design, atmosphere, etc.
