Ohev Sholom - The National Synagogue, Orthodox synagogue in Shepherd Park, Washington, D.C., United States.

The synagogue features a modern building with facilities to accommodate daily prayers, religious ceremonies, and community gatherings in Northwest Washington.

Established in 1960, the synagogue emerged from the merger of Ohev Sholom Congregation and Talmud Torah Congregation, both founded in the late 1880s.

The congregation maintains Orthodox Jewish traditions while providing educational programs, Torah studies, and regular services for its growing community of professionals and families.

Members receive access to daily prayer services, religious education classes, lifecycle event support, and dedicated spaces for community gatherings throughout the year.

The synagogue temporarily adopted the name 'The National Synagogue' in 2005 to promote inclusivity before returning to its original name Ohev Sholom.

Location: Washington, D.C.
