History

From foundations to founding

Built in the 1850’s as the Third Reformed Presbyterian Church, the Emunath Israel Congregation acquired the space in 1920. During this transition, the congregation installed stained glass windows as a tribute to their vibrant culture and community. Founded in 1865, The Chelsea Hall has a long and beautiful history as a focal point of Jewish life.

Heart of the
community

During its heyday, The Chelsea Shul primarily served working Jews in the garment industries, an earnest congregation with traditional values. On high holidays, close to 800 congregants would come to say Yizkor, a prayer for departed loved ones. It also served as a place of celebration for its numerous congregants, hosting weddings, bar mitzvahs, births and more.
