Every synagogue has a "Ner Tamid" - an Eternal Light somewhere towards the front. Probably reminiscent of the Menorah in the Holy Temple in Jerusalem which had a lamp that burn all day long. Sometimes synagogues have one or more "Ner Neshama" - Soul Lamps. It's customary to light a candle (or electric lamp) in memory of a deceased, and some people pay the synagogue to keep these lamps burning - so they don't have to keep them at home. Some synagogues have a "Wunder Lamp" - "information" lamps which is lit to inform everybody of the presence of people celebrating something; a Mohel, Sandek, Bar Mitzva boy, groom or mother on her first visit to the synagogue after giving birth.
