Star of Broadway and television, Mandy Patinkin at the 275th anniversary service, July 11, 2008.
Shalom y'all and welcome to the website of the third oldest Jewish Congregation in America!
We are proud of our over 275 years of history in Savannah. Our historic sanctuary was designed by New York architect Henry G. Harrison and built in 1876 in pure neo-Gothic style, reflecting the fashionable architecture of the Victorian era. It is the only Gothic-style architecture synagogue in America. Our three story Sheftall Memorial Hall addition, opened in 2003, houses our world class museum, library, Judaica shop, religious school and temple offices, as well as our impressive banquet room and full professional kitchen.
Mickve Israel is a member of the Union for Reform Judaism. We are a welcoming congregation with our members being very active within the congregation and community.
We welcome anyone who wishes to worship with us, and visitors are invited to tour our historic sanctuary and museum.

Please be aware that we only have on-street parking at Mickve Israel. It will be necessary for you to pay to park at a City parking meter during business hours, but not after 5 pm or on the weekends. However, illegally parked vehicles will be ticketed.
