Mostly we don’t think about it, but a few of the great Synagogues of the Sephardim are not well known by their Hebrew name, like the ones in Amsterdam and in London. I couldn’t find the Hebrew names for the Synagogues of Livorno and Bordeaux, though I have to say my research was rather superficial.Here are the names that I did find:Portuguese Synagogue Amsterdam, or Kahal Kados de Talmud Torah. Earlier there were three communities Bet Jacob, Bet Israel and Neve Salom The Hague, Portuguese Synagogue, or Honen DalLondon, S&P Synagogue Bevis Marks, or Qahal Kadosh Sha'ar ha-ShamayimHamburg had three early communities, Talmud Torah (in the house of Elijah Aboab Cardoso), Keter Torah and. Neveh Shalom. In 1652 the three Portuguese congregations formally constituted themselves as Holy Community of the Sephardim of Beit Israel, with a large synagogue of the same name.Bayonne did not have a synagogue for a long time, its members met in the yeshiva Nusaphot Jeuda.Touro Synagogue Newport, originally – before the American Revolution it was known as Yeshuat IsraelTouro Synagogue in New Orleans, named in 1880 after Judah Touro, had a predecessor Nefutzoth YehudahNew York: Shearith IsraelCuraçao, Mikvé Israel-Emanuel Synagogue CuraçaoSurinam, There were two Sephardic synagogues in Surinam: Beracha Ve Shalom 1685 – 1832, and Zedek ve Shalom (1735-?).
