The Chief Minister of the Great Synagogue, Rabbi Dr. Benjamin Elton, invites you all to a Special Service and Gala Reception in honor of the commencement of the 140th Anniversary of The Great Synagogue on Shabbat 3rd March 2018. Did you know that The Great Synagogue in Sydney was designed by Cornish architect Thomas Rowe, and was consecrated in 1878. It combines elements of Byzantine Style and Gothic characteristics. This grand building is often described as the "cathedral synagogue" of Australia. The Great Synagogue has its origins in the 1820s, and the first Jewish services in Sydney. A synagogue was founded in York Street in 1844, and although a rival congregation was formed on Macquarie Street, the two communities reunited in 1878 to form The Great. The building is one of the national treasures of Australia, and one of the most beautiful places of worship of any denomination. The glorious Ark, cedar Bimah and pews, stained glass windows, shining brasswork, intricate tiles and star-studded ceiling make any service at The Great Synagogue inspiring. Dont miss the 140th celebrations.
