Dunedin Synagogue, Religious building in Moray Place, Dunedin, New Zealand
The Gothic Revival style synagogue features architectural elements reflecting Jewish traditions through carefully selected design elements and structural compositions at each entrance point.
Established in 1864, the synagogue began with 43 members gathering at H.E. Nathan's residence before constructing their first dedicated building on Moray Place.
The synagogue maintains regular monthly services and major Jewish holiday celebrations while participating in the Union for Progressive Judaism activities.
The current building, designed by John Goldwater in 1965, offers guided tours explaining the architectural details and local Jewish community development.
This religious institution holds the distinction of being the most southern permanent synagogue on Earth, marking the edge of global Jewish infrastructure.
