Synagogue de Clermont-Ferrand

Synagogue de Clermont-Ferrand, Jewish synagogue in central Clermont-Ferrand, France.

The synagogue Beit Yacov stands at 20 rue des Quatre-Passeports in the Fontgiève district. Its gray stone facade rises from a wooden double door with vertical panels; above the door a stone band carries the word "TEMPLE" in gold capitals, topped by a triangular pediment with a gold disc and carved scrolls. Two narrow arched windows with dark grilles sit above, between pale yellow walls.

The building was constructed in 1862 by architect François-Louis Jarrier and served the local Jewish community as a synagogue. It closed in 1963 due to structural issues but was later restored and transformed into a new purpose.

The building is named Beit Yacov, after the father of Edmond Safra, who bought it in 1990 and returned it to the community. Since 1 December 2013 it has operated as the Centre culturel Jules Isaac under the aegis of the Mémorial de la Shoah, dedicated to the memory of the Auvergnats recognised as Righteous Among the Nations.

The former synagogue stands at 20 rue des Quatre-Passeports in the Fontgiève district, while the city's current synagogue, attached to the Lyon regional consistory, is at 6 rue Blatin. The building has housed the Jules Isaac Cultural Center under the Mémorial de la Shoah since 1 December 2013. Look for the gold "TEMPLE" lettering above the wooden double door.

The name Beit Yacov, given during the restoration, honours Jacob, father of the donor Edmond Safra, who bought the building in 1990 and returned it to the community. Before that, a masonic body owned it from 1978 and altered it considerably.
