The Temple, Reform synagogue in Midtown Atlanta, United States.

The Temple features neoclassical architecture with a central drum dome, pedimented portico, and detailed interior design including terrazzo floors and gilded woodwork.

Founded in 1867 to serve German-Jewish immigrants, The Temple became Atlanta's first Jewish congregation and received National Register of Historic Places status in 1982.

The Temple maintains extensive educational programs through the Weinberg Early Learning Center and Breman Education Center, serving over 4000 members of the Jewish community.

Located at 1589 Peachtree Street NE, the synagogue offers weekly Shabbat services on Fridays at 6:00 PM and Saturdays at 10:30 AM with online streaming options.

The 1958 bombing of The Temple during the civil rights movement led to a Pulitzer Prize-winning editorial by Ralph McGill of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution.
