Tour of The Temple

The Temple was designed in 1930 by Atlanta architect Philip Trammell Shutze. In 1860, the Atlanta Jewish community formed the Hebrew Benevolent Society to obtain a burial group and organize relief for the Jewish poor. In 1867, the Hebrew Benevolent Congregation, now known as The Temple, was chartered as the first official Jewish organization in Atlanta.
