Touro Synagogue is a Reform synagogue in New Orleans, Louisiana. It was named after Judah Touro, the son Isaac Touro, the namesake of the country's oldest synagogue, Touro Synagogue in Newport, Rhode Island.
The New Orleans Touro Synagogue is one of the oldest synagogues in the United States and USA's oldest outside of the original 13 states. The current synagogue was founded in 1881 from the merger of two older (originally Orthodox) congregations: the German Jewish Shangarai Chasset congregation, and Portuguese Jewish (Sephardic) Nefutzot Yehudah congregation.
The current sanctuary building on St. Charles Avenue in Uptown New Orleans was constructed in 1908 and dedicated 1 January 1909.
