Geschiedenis
The Central Synagogue was opened in 1855 on Great Portland Street, as a branch of the Great Synagogue on Duke's Place, and was initially administered by that Synagogue. It became independent in 1870, and was one of the five original synagogues which grouped together to form the United Synagogue in 1870. The Synagogue building was destroyed by enemy action in 1941, but was rebuilt from 1955 and reconsecrated in 1958. It remains a Constituent member of the United Synagogue.
