Temple Emanu-El-Beth Sholom, Byzantine Revival synagogue in Westmount, Quebec, Canada.

Temple Emanu-El-Beth Sholom exhibits architectural elements with domes and intricate designs reflecting both spiritual and artistic expressions of Jewish heritage.

The synagogue's original structure from 1911 faced destruction by fire in 1959, leading to reconstruction and completion of the current building in 1960.

The Aron Museum within the synagogue houses Canada's first collection dedicated to Jewish ceremonial art objects, established in 1953.

The temple maintains four cemetery locations: Mount Royal Cemetery, Eternal Gardens Cemetery, Lakeview Memorial Gardens, and Kehal Israel Memorial Cemetery.

Educational tours through the committee of docents inform students and adults about Jewish traditions and the synagogue's historical development.
