Touro Synagogue, Reform synagogue in Uptown New Orleans, United States
The synagogue building features Byzantine Revival architecture with a 71-foot wide dome at 4238 St. Charles Avenue in New Orleans.
The congregation formed in 1881 through the merger of Shangarai Chasset from 1828 and Nefutzot Yehudah from 1846, adopting the Touro name.
The synagogue maintains inclusive practices, accepting interfaith families, Jews of color, LGBTQ+ individuals, and people with different learning abilities.
Weekly Shabbat services occur every Friday at 6:00 PM, with additional First Shabbat and B'nei Mitzvah services on select Saturdays.
The synagogue received its name from Judah Touro, who supported both Jewish congregations and various Christian charities in New Orleans.
