Bezalel Narkiss Index of Jewish Art e Sinagoga Beith Itzchak Elchonon



District: Bom Retiro - São Paulo - SP - Brazil
Location: Prates Street
Founded: 1936, Foundation Stone" in 1956, and building inauguration in 1957

Project: Sznelwar and Raw
Description of the building: Formed by Jews of Lithuanian origin, until the year of 1957 they met in the house of Rabbi Valt. Located at Rua Prates, the synagogue entrance leads both to the lower floor and to the upper floor. The lower floor, one below the entrance of the street, is destined for the “party room”, with the former wood carved Aron Hakodesh, and Bimah at the front. As in the other synagogues, the two lions, at the top of the Aron Hakodesh, flank the Luchót Habrit. 
The Torót, inside, are very well preserved. And various objects such as "cos yain", bessamim containers, candelabra, are kept in a closet along with prayer books. Today, in this space, the Shabbat and Kiddush lunches are held. A flight of stairs above the entrance of the synagogue, is located the male sector. A central passage(corridor), covered with a blue carpet and flanked on both sides by wooden benches, similar to the various Ashkenazim synagogues of São Paulo, of the same construction time, leads to Bimah and Aron Hakodesh covered by white “parochet”. 
The lions drawn on the upper wall also flank here the Luchót Habrit and the Keter above them. The banches still have the name plates on their backs. Plates with "Ner Zikarón" are affixed near the entrance of this floor, in tribute to the old regulars. On the second floor of the synagogue is the women's gallery. The same wooden benches, the fixed plates in them, and a small wall that allows women to accompany the ceremonies, make up this space.
