New West End Synagogue, Orthodox synagogue in Bayswater, London, England.

The New West End Synagogue displays Moorish Revival architecture with intricate patterns, ornate details, and a substantial Torah ark designed by Nathan S. Joseph.

The synagogue opened its doors on March 30, 1879, with Leopold de Rothschild and Chief Rabbi Dr. Nathan Marcus Adler attending the foundation stone ceremony.

The synagogue maintains a strong musical tradition through Mosaic Voices choir, which performs compositions spanning four centuries of Jewish liturgical music.

The synagogue accommodates 800 people and operates Monday through Thursday from 9:30 AM to 4:30 PM, with shorter hours on Friday from 9:30 AM to 1 PM.

Historic England designated this synagogue as a Grade I listed building in 1975, recognizing its combination of Gothic Revival, Islamic, Japanese, and Classical Revival elements.
