Adath Shalom Synagogue (transliterated from Hebrew as "Assembly of Peace"[1]) is a Masorti Jewish synagogue located on 8 Rue Georges-Bernard-Shaw in the XVe arrondissement of Paris, France.

History

The congregation was established in 1989. In 1991, Rivon Krygier became the rabbi of the congregation.[2][3]

The community identifies with the Masorti movement, or Conservative Judaism, which attempts to bridge modernity (like Reform Judaism) and a respect for tradition (like Orthodox Judaism). There is and equal role for men and women,[4][5] and the community is invested in Interfaith dialogue with the group Vivre Ensemble in Paris' 15th arrondissement.[6][7][8]

In 2004, the synagogue founded a satellite location, originally named Adath Shalom East. This location was renamed Dor V'Dor (Generation to Generation in Hebrew) in 2013. This location is at 10 rue du Cambodge in the 20th arrondissement. Their Rabbi is Yeshaya Dalsace.[9]

In 2008, Adath Shalom had 300 families as members. It is the largest Masorti community in France.[10]
