TEMPLE FACTS - TEMPLE TOURS

In 1853, a lot on Broadway in North Beach was purchased to build the first Temple Emanu-El building. In 1926, the current Temple Emanu-El building was finished. Price tag: $1,300,000 for lot and building.

There are 2,000 pieces of glass in each stained glass window with over 200 different colors

The ark in the Main Sanctuary was commissioned, manufactured in England, and exhibited in the Albert and Victoria Museum in London before being shipped to San Francisco

Out of town relatives and guests will appreciate seeing and hearing about this historical building.

Tours of the Temple with a trained docent are offered from 1:00 to 3:00 pm every Tuesday through Thursday. For other days, call the Temple at (415) 751-2535 for a reservation.
