About the building

Built in 1884, this Mumbai synagogue combines Jewish worship traditions with Victorian design and Burmese teak furnishings. WMF records a completed restoration with the JSW Foundation after water infiltration damaged its roof, interiors and stained glass.

The project

Ask about present preventive maintenance needs; the roof, timber and stained-glass problems described by WMF belong to the completed restoration, not a verified current appeal.

Sources

Restoration was completed in 2019; no current site-specific appeal, transfer of ownership or volunteer placement was verified.
