Temple Beth Sholom, Conservative Jewish synagogue in Elkins Park, Pennsylvania
Temple Beth Sholom features translucent corrugated wire glass walls that allow natural light to fill its 110-foot-high main sanctuary space.
The congregation began in Philadelphia's Logan neighborhood in 1919 and relocated to suburban Elkins Park during the 1950s suburban migration.
The synagogue maintains educational programs through its visitor center, offering insights into Jewish traditions and architectural heritage.
The main sanctuary accommodates 1,020 worshippers, while an additional first-floor sanctuary provides space for 250 more attendees.
Frank Lloyd Wright incorporated Mayan Revival architectural elements into the synagogue design, creating a modern interpretation of ancient temple structures.
