Reform Congregation Adath Israel
received its charter in September 1842. This third synagogue building, designed
by Kenneth McDonald and J.F. Sheblessy, was dedicated on June 3, 1906. The
neo-classical design is shared by many other early twentieth-century structures
built in Louisville, a result of the strength and prestige of the architects.
Also known as the "Third Street Synagogue," this structure was listed in
the National Registry of Historic Places in 1975. In 1977 it was sold to
an Apostolic Church.
