Dollis Hill Synagogue, Orthodox synagogue in Dollis Hill, England

The two-story concrete structure accommodates 324 men at ground level and 316 women in the gallery, with distinct window patterns throughout the building.

The congregation formed in 1929, initially meeting in private homes before moving to Neasden Mission Hall until the construction of their permanent building in 1933.

The synagogue windows incorporate specific design elements, including a hexagonal pattern representing the Star of David and an inverted arch depicting a seven-candle menorah.

Following its sale in 1995, the building transformed into the Avigdor Hirsch Torah Primary School while maintaining religious services in an adjacent facility until 2011.

The building received Grade II Listed status in 1982, marking its architectural significance despite initial dissatisfaction that led architect Owen Williams to return part of his fee.
