Located just minutes from Baltimore's spectacular Inner Harbor, our historic 135-year-old B'nai Israel Synagogue, the longest continually operated modern Orthodox synagogue in Maryland, is a friendly 200-member congregation that welcomes newcomers to join in services, ask questions, and explore our wide range of activities. We are a place where Jews of all backgrounds can feel at home. Our Rabbi Alan Yuter is a master of the Q and A.

The Synagogue's unique architecture, which inspires and uplifts us in prayer and is the focus of docent-led tours that attract scores of people, has become the backdrop to a creative array of Jewish educational, spiritual, and social programs for the Baltimore Jewish Community – and especially for area residents of the Baltimore Harbor communities of Federal Hill, Canton, Fells Point, Butchers Hill, Mount Vernon, East Harbor and surrounding areas.

B'nai Israel regularly plays host to those visiting for business, pleasure and health reasons and provides a welcoming, supportive atmosphere and comfortable religious services for Jews of all backgrounds.

We're proud to have the largest Modern Orthodox Young Adult Group in Baltimore.

B'nai Israel wishes its members and friends a Happy and Joyous Hanukkah.
