Synagogue located in Belleville's east end, built in 1956.
The Synagogue traces its beginnings to 1905, when Jewish workers in the Belleville area would meet for services at a local rooming house. This eventually expanded to the Orange Hall on Front Street and to a converted house on Pinnacle Street.
The congregation remained in the Pinnacle street location from 1927 until the new Synagogue was built on Victoria Ave in 1956.
