Sinagoga Beth El, Reform synagogue in Vila Buarque, São Paulo, Brazil

Sinagoga Beth El is a seven-sided synagogue building on Rua Avanhandava in Bela Vista, São Paulo, completed in 1929 in the Byzantine Revival style to a design by Russian architect Samuel Roder. It was the first synagogue building erected in the city and now also houses the Jewish Museum of São Paulo. The seven sides are meant to recall the seven days of creation and the seven branches of the menorah of the ancient Temple.

The building was constructed in 1929 and was the first major synagogue structure in São Paulo, with initial services held in 1932. Its construction was made possible through funding from Jewish families and the leadership of Salomão Klabin.

The name Beth-El means "house of God" in Hebrew. The congregation describes itself as pluralist and inclusive, and it is a member of the World Union for Progressive Judaism. The museum collection includes cutlery engraved with swastikas, war diaries and banknotes from concentration camps.

The synagogue is only open for Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur or for scheduled visits, so arrange a visit in advance rather than dropping by. The building is at Rua Avanhandava 105, first floor, in Bela Vista, and houses the Jewish Museum of São Paulo.

The seven-sided plan was chosen to mark the number seven in Jewish tradition: the seven days of creation and the seven branches of the menorah that lit the Temple of Solomon. The building was designed by Russian architect Samuel Roder for immigrant families, and sculptor Gerson Knispel briefly used its basement as his studio.
