The Temple built in 1924 is an historic synagogue building located on University Circle at Silver Park in Cleveland, Ohio. In 1963, a branch synagogue, Tifereth-Israel, was established in suburban Beachwood, which is now the main place of worship. The congregation now known as The Temple - Tifereth Israel still owns the University Circle building, whose Silver Sanctuary, named for longtime rabbi, Abba Hillel Silver, is still used on the High Holy Days as well as for life cycle events and meetings. It also houses the Temple Museum of Religious Art. [ [http://www.clevelandjewishhistory.net/silver/temple.html Cleveland Jewish History: History of The Temple] ]
