Cuban Hebrew Congregation, Conservative synagogue in Miami Beach, United States.
The Cuban Hebrew Congregation is a Conservative synagogue housed in a three-story building on Michigan Avenue in Miami Beach. Inside, stained glass windows display images representing the Twelve Tribes of Israel.
The congregation was founded in 1961 to serve Cuban Jewish families who had fled the island after the political changes of 1959. The building at its current location opened in 1975 and received an expansion in 1982.

The synagogue welcomes visitors during posted hours and holds regular services throughout the week. Calling ahead is advisable to confirm visiting times and any access requirements you may have.
