East London Central Synagogue, Ashkenazi synagogue in East End, London, England

The East London Central Synagogue stands on Nelson Street with a modest brick exterior and an interior featuring Ionic columns and ornate furnishings.

Founded in 1923 as Nelson Street Sfardish Synagogue, the institution merged with twenty neighboring synagogues during the evolution of London's Jewish community.

The synagogue maintains an extensive collection of Torah scrolls from the 18th century and follows a prayer liturgy influenced by Rabbi Isaac Luria.

The synagogue offers Hebrew reading courses, children's programs, and women's study groups while collaborating with various Jewish organizations across London.

This religious center remains the only purpose-built synagogue among the three remaining Jewish places of worship in London's East End.
