History

[edit]

It dates to 1915 when services were first held, during the First World War, in the hall of Golders Green Parish Church.[2] The current synagogue building in Dunstan Road, which was designated a Grade II listed building on 20 May 2007,[3] opened in 1922 and currently serves more than 500 member households.[4]

Golders Green Synagogue is closely associated with Rimon Jewish Primary School, which opened its doors in 2012 on the synagogue premises.[5][6]
