Spanish and Portuguese Synagogue of Montreal

Spanish and Portuguese Synagogue of Montreal 1st Synagogue established in Canada (1768). We are a participatory, creative, & inclusive community dedicated to preserving and enlivening our traditions. Joseph

The Congregation of the Spanish and Portuguese Synagogue is especially aware of its unique history and place in Canadian life. As a dynamic congregation that has grown from 300 to 700 families in the past twenty-eight years many challenges face us. One of those challenges is to preserve our patrimony as we seek to serve our expanded membership. Recently completed renovations and expansion of our f

acilities including the reconstruction of a chapel according to the design of the classic Spanish-Portuguese Synagogue building that was on Stanley Street would reflect our efforts to both preserve our unique tradition and enhance our service. This new chapel is used on a daily basis and is extremely useful for the overflowing crowds at holiday times. We continue to consider our responsibility to be not only an active Jewish congregation but also an historic monument to Canadian and Quebec and Jewish life. Rabbi Howard S.
