Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:For Шаблон:Use mdy dates Шаблон:Infobox religious building Beth Israel Synagogue (Шаблон:Lang-he) is a Conservative synagogue located at 920 Franklin Road in Roanoke, Virginia, in the United States. The synagogue was founded in 1900, and as of 2009, it had a membership of approximately 160 families and individuals.[1]

The 1925 building, designed by Frye and Stone, combines Classical Revival features in an unusual and rather severe design. A two-story Ionic portico, with an entablature, is engaged with and centered on the stepped gabled and parapeted façade. Doors and windows occupy each of the bays between the columns. A small Star of David occupies the gable.[2]

In 2007 the synagogue completed an expansion and renovation of its building, carefully planned so that the original facade, part of Roanoke's Old Southwest historic district, was unaltered.[3]

Rabbi Fabian Werbin commenced in 2008.[1]
