List of synagogues in Australia and New Zealand


This list of synagogues and Jewish congregations in Australia and New Zealand represents those known to have existed at some time in the history of Jewish communities in either the colonial or national periods of either countries.

Although many established congregations choose to build synagogues, Jewish congregations may also use existing, often residential, premises. In these cases only the interior is changed, leaving the exterior in its original design.

Different names for the synagogue may be used depending on the affiliation of each congregation. Modern Orthodox and Chasidic congregations may refer to their synagogue as a "shul" which is derived from the Yiddish word for "school" whereas congregations associated with the Reform Judaism may call their synagogue a "temple".

previously Adelaide Hebrew Congregation (1850–1990), Adelaide, SA
