About
Shaarei Tfiloh Synagogue (transliterated from Hebrew as "Gates of Prayer"), also known as the Shul in the Park, is a former Orthodox Jewish congregation and synagogue located on Druid Hill Park at 2001 Liberty Heights Avenue, Baltimore, Maryland, in the United States. Completed in 1927, in September 2023 it was reported that the synagogue had closed.
Shaarei Tfiloh Synagogue was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1996. The synagogue is significant due to its association with the immigration of Russian and Eastern European Jews to Baltimore. It is a rock-faced stone structure with large arched stained glass windows and a pedimented roofline surmounted by a central copper-clad dome.
