Dohány Synagogue
DonMartini (VirtualGlobetrotting)
By: DonMartini.
The Great Synagogue in Dohány Street, also known as the Dohány Synagogue, or the Tabac-Schul, the Yiddish translation of dohány (tobacco), after the Hungarian name of the street, is located in Belváros, the inner city of Pest, in the eastern section of Budapest. It was built between 1854-1859 by the Neolog Jewish community of Pest according to the plans of the Viennese architect Ludwig Foerster. The synagogue neighbors a major Budapest thoroughfare expressing the optimism and the newly elevated status of the Hungarian Jews in the mid years of the 19th century.
It is a monumental, magnificent synagogue, with a capacity of 2,964 seats (1,492 for men and 1,472 in the women's galleries) making it one of the largest in the world. The building has a length of more than 53 meters while its width has 26.5 meters. The design of the Dohány Street synagogue, while basically in a Moorish style, also features a mixture of Byzantine, Romantic, and Gothic elements.
In 1991 a monument dedicated to the memory of the Hungarian Jews who perished in the Holocaust was installed in the rear courtyard of the synagogue, in a small park named for Raoul Wallenberg. The Holocaust memorial, the work of Imre Varga, resembles a weeping willow whose leaves bear inscriptions with the names of the victims and boasts the inscription Whose agony is greater than mine. 240 non-Jewish Hungarians "righteous among the nations", who saved Jews during the Holocaust, are inscribed on four large marble plaques. The memorial was made possible by the generous support of the New York based Emanuel Foundation for Hungarian Culture, with funds raised from private donors. The National Jewish Museum (Orszagos Zsido Vallasi es Torteneti Gyujtemeny) is located within the synagogue compound.
Today the Great Synagogue in Dohány Street, for a long time one of the most renowned landmarks of Budapest, is serving as the main synagogue of the local Jewish community as well as a major tourist attraction.

Tempio Maggiore di Roma
doitsurt (VirtualGlobetrotting)
By: doitsurt.
The Great Synagogue of Rome (Italian: Tempio Maggiore di Roma) is the largest synagogue in Rome.
The building was constructed shortly after the unification of Italy in 1870, when the Kingdom of Italy captured Rome from the Napoleonic regime, which backed the Papal States. Victor Emmanuel II dismantled the Roman Ghetto and granted the Jews citizenship. The building which had previously housed the ghetto synagogue (a complicated structure housing five scolas in a single building) was demolished, and the Jewish community began making plans for a new and impressive building.

Sixth & I Historic Synagogue
AlbinoFlea (VirtualGlobetrotting)
By: AlbinoFlea.
From www.sixthandi.org:
Construction began on the Sixth & I Street Historic Synagogue in 1906, after architect Louis Levi and builder Arthur Cowsill satisfied District of Columbia engineers that the 45-foot span reinforced concrete foundation – new technology for the time – would hold the weight of the building committee, the engineers and seventy two courses of heavy brick, and, by implication, of the entire building.
"The new temple of worship," noted the Washington Post on January 5, 1908, "although not so large as a number of other churches in the city, is considered, from an architectural point of view to be one of the finest in Washington. It is built of light gray vitrified brick, with handsome terra cotta trimmings and unglazed red tile roof. There are five domes, a large one in the center, forty feet in diameter, and smaller ones in each corner. The style of architecture is a combination of modernized French and Byzantine. The trimmings over the entrances are rich in decorative effect and harmonious in their proportions."
"The chief feature of the interior," the Post continued, "is the large central dome, the ceiling of which rises 69 feet above the auditorium floor. Cathedral style is used in the interior, the large and small arches rising in graceful bows to meet each other. The glistening white enamel of the panel work and the rough white sands work of the walls made the richly colored stained glass windows, of which there are more than a score, standing out in striking contrast."

The Neue Synagoge (Eng. "New Synagogue") was built 1859-1866 as the main synagogue of the Berlin Jewish community, on Oranienburger Straße. Because of its splendid eastern moorish style and resemblance to the Alhambra, it is an important architectural monument of the second half of the 19th Century in Berlin.
The original building was designed by Eduard Knoblauch. Following Knoblauch's succumbing to illness, Friedrich August Stüler took responsibility for the majority of its construction as well as for its interior arrangement and design. It was inaugurated in the presence of Chancellor Count Otto von Bismarck in 1866 .

From www.jhsgw.org:
The Jewish Historical Society of Greater Washington and its Lillian & Albert Small Jewish Museum preserve, chronicle and present the story of the local Jewish community through archival collections, exhibits, educational programs, publications, and the restoration and preservation of the oldest synagogue building in the nation’s capital. The Museum is located in the historic 1876 Adas Israel Synagogue—the oldest in the Washington, DC area. The synagogue is listed on the National Register of Historic Places, the DC Inventory of Historic Sites, and the Historic American Buildings Survey. It is an Official Project of the Save America’s Treasures program.
Founded by volunteers in 1960, the Jewish Historical Society of Greater Washington was incorporated in 1965 as a nonprofit organization dedicated to interpreting Jewish history in the greater Washington area. In 1969, galvanized by the pending demolition of the oldest synagogue building in the nation’s capital, Society members arranged for the historic building to be moved three city blocks to its present location. After extensive restoration, the synagogue was rededicated and opened to the public as the Lillian & Albert Small Jewish Museum in 1975.

The Sofia Synagogue (Bulgarian: Софийска синагога, Sofiyska sinagoga) is the largest synagogue in Southeastern Europe, one of two functioning in Bulgaria and the third-largest in Europe.
Constructed for the needs of the Bulgarian capital Sofia's mainly Sephardic Jewish community after a project by the Austrian architect Friedrich Grünanger, it resembles the old Sephardic synagogue Leopoldstädter Tempel in Vienna and was officially opened on 9 September 1909 in the presence of Tsar Ferdinand I of Bulgaria. The first preparations for the synagogue's construction date to 1903, while the construction itself had begun on 13 November 1905.
The construction of a grand new synagogue was part of the reorganization efforts of the Bulgarian Jewish community under Lemberg-born Chief Rabbi Marcus Ehrenpreis and local leaders Ezra Tadjer and Avram Davidjon Levy.

Hurva Synagogue
Construction of the Hurva Synagogue began under Rabbi Judah the Hassid (Judah he-Hasid Segal ha-Levi) but ended at his death in 1700. The Rabbi led the largest organized congregation of Ashkenazi Jewish immigrants to the Land of Israel in the 17th and 18th centuries. The failure of the Ashkenazi to pay the bills for the half-built synagogue led to riots that resulted in their expulsion from Jerusalem in 1720. The resulting desolate ruins gave the synagogue its current name - Hurva. The Hurva Synagogue was again occupied under Rabbi Ibrahim Pasha in 1836 and finally completed in 1856.

The 1948 Millinery Center Synagogue
The millinery industry was well established in the Garment District by 1920, concentrated in the area between 35th and 40th Streets, from Fifth to Sixth Avenues. In 1931, there were nearly 600 hat manufacturers in New York employing some 15,000 workers and comprising two thirds of the national trade. When it was founded in 1935, the Millinery Center Synagogue's congregation worshipped in a loft building. By 1948, when the current synagogue building was completed, the congregation numbered 1,200. Built by and for milliners, the synagogue was both a symbolic expression of Jewish culture within the industry and a social center. Along with the millinery union, regular supporters included the Millinery Bowling League, the Millinery Textile Cub, the Millinery Salesman Union and retailers throughout the city. Memorial plaques line the walls, extolling the virtues of those who served the millinery industry as well as the synagogue.

Hamburg Temple remains
Dania (VirtualGlobetrotting)
By: Dania.
The Hamburg Temple was the synagogue of the Jewish reform movement in Hamburg (Germany) from 1818 to 1938. It was the first reform synagogue in Germany.
The New Israelite Temple Society was founded in 1817. One of the pioneers of the Temple movement was Israel Jacobson (1768–1828). In 1810 he founded his school synagogue in Seesen, and Kassel.
Dr. Eduard Kley together with Dr. Gotthold Salomon were the first spiritual leaders of the Hamburg Temple in 1818. The first members included Meyer Israel Bresselau, Lazarus Gumpel and Ruben Daniel Warburg. Later members included Salomon Heine and Dr. Gabriel Riesser, who was chairman of the Temple Association from 1840-43.
The Hamburg Temple was first invented in 1818 in the Brunnenstraße (Hamburg Neustadt).
The religious service of the Hamburg Temple was disseminated at the 1820 Leipzig Trade Fair where Jewish businessmen from Germany, many other European countries, and from the USA met and discussed the new ritual. As a consequence, the Reform community, including New York and Baltimore, adopted the Hamburg Temple's new prayer book, which was read from front to back, as in the Christian world.

Touro Synagogue
Among the many historic colonial buildings in Rhode Island is Touro Synagogue, the oldest synagogue in America. It still serves an active congregation. Founded in 1763, this little synagogue's history is representative of the religious tolerance that has always characterized Rhode Island. It is also an architectural gem, designed by America's greatest 18th-century architect.
Newport's Jewish congregation was formed in the spring of 1658, when a party of 15 Jewish families arrived from the Caribbean, possibly Barbados or Curacao. They were fleeing religious persecution, just as their ancestors had done from Spain and Portugal.
They received a warm welcome in religiously tolerant Newport. And a few years later (1663), the royal charter of Rhode Island formalized the established local practice that everyone has "full liberty in religious concernments." Newport's Jews thrived in the trade business and for over a century held services and ceremonies in each other's homes.
Finally, in 1759, the growing community built a synagogue. They named it after Isaac Touro, a prominent member of the congregation. The building was designed by Peter Harrison (1716-75), who is regarded by many as the finest architect in 18th-century America - he also designed King's Chapel in Boston and Christ Church in Cambridge, Mass.
Harrison was an Anglican and had never seen a synagogue in his life, so the congregation showed him sketches of the Portuguese Synagogue in Amsterdam. The new synagogue was dedicated on the first night of Hanukkah in December 1763.
