American Congregation

Welcome

Welcome to the Roumanisher shul; open since 1885. Established by Romanian immigrants, the Romanisher shul quickly gained a
reputation as being one of New York’s leading congregations. The main sanctuary was able to comfortably seat more than a thousand people on Shabbos and Yom Tov; a smaller space was located on the lower floor of the shul that was used for daily minyanim.

The First Romanian American Congregation, better known as the Romanishe shul, has been a beloved fixture of the Lower East Side for more than a hundred-forty years. The shul nurtures a warm and welcoming environment, with an open-door policy for anyone in need. Despite the changes in neighborhood demographics, it continues to serve as a hub of Torah and Tefilah with its schedule of weekly minyanim and shiurim. Donate today to help the shul continue its avodas hakodesh.
