Tesjoengat Israël

On the site where sawmills once stood, the synagogue of the Tesjoengat Israel or 'Vereeniging Hulpe Israëls' was inaugurated in 1892 at Gerard Doustraat 238. The Jewish architect Emanuel Marcus Rood (also the architect of the Central Israelite Nursing Service in Jacob Obrechtstraat) designed the building, which was built in neo-Dutch Renaissance style. Because many diamond workers felt at home here, the synagogue was also called the 'Diamond Synagogue'.
