History

The Adath Israel Congregation ("Congregation of Israel"), the oldest in Kentucky, was chartered in 1842 in the Orthodox tradition[1]Шаблон:Rp and has occupied six buildings.[2] It is a founding member of the Union for Reform Judaism.[3]

Brith Sholom ("Covenant of Peace"), Louisville's third oldest synagogue, was organized in 1880.[4] It was established in the Conservative tradition[1]Шаблон:Rp for those wishing to pray in German, rather than the English used in Adath Israel. It joined the Reform movement in 1920.[3]

In 1976, Adath Israel merged with Brith Sholom.[5] This was motivated by the desire of both groups to improve their physical facilities and to relocate to the eastern part of Jefferson County. For a few years after it was organized as Adath Israel Brith Sholom, it held services in the Brith Sholom building. In 1980, the congregation moved into its new Modernist sanctuary on Brownsboro Road.[6]Шаблон:Rp

The congregation's first synagogue was built in 1849 on Fourth Street, which a fire destroyed in 1866.[5]

In 1868, the congregation built a new temple at Broadway and Sixth Street.[5] The elaborate domed synagogue was created in an Orientalist style that featured twin towers topped by tall domes and a Torah Ark with a horseshoe arch topped by a similar dome. The architect was H. P. Bradshaw.[6]Шаблон:Rp Adolph S. Moses served as rabbi from 1881 to his death in 1902.[7] The building was subsequently repurposed as a Methodist church.[6]Шаблон:Rp

The congregation's third building was informally known as the "Third Street Synagogue". The Greek Revival structure[5] was designed by architects Kenneth McDonald and J.F. Sheblessy[8]Шаблон:Rp and dedicated on June 3, 1906. The building was listed in the National Register of Historic Places in 1974 as a result of the strength and prestige of the architects.
