Temple Israel, Minneapolis


Temple Israel was founded as congregation Shaari Tov ("Gates of Goodness") in 1878. The building in the picture was designed by architect Jack Liebenberg, dedicated in 1929. The Temple’s pillared facade reflects Greek influence on early Judaism. The five doors represent five books of the Torah–Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers and Deuteronomy.
