Temple Emanuel

A copper dome and octagonal sanctuary are features of this restored temple which includes historic and religious treasures and Raban’s leaded glass windows depicting the principal prophets of Judaism; the Holy Ark on the east wall, containing the Torah; a white marble tablet displaying the first words of the Ten Commandments; and the central chandelier, in the shape of a star of David. Temple Emanuel’s congregation has made a reality of the words of Rabbi Rosinger: “Judaism is not a petrified creed, but a way of life.” 

The temple was established in September of 1895 and the current building received a dedication in 1923.
