Temple Moses Sephardic Congregation of Florida (Orthodox)

Sermons are delivered in Spanish at this Cuban-Sephardic congregation. Dedicated in 1980, the synagogue is a copy of a synagogue in Havana that was abandoned by Jews fleeing Castro. Outside, at the corner of Main and Vichy, a plaque commemorates the 850th birthday of Jewish philosopher and Torah expert, Moses Maimonides in 1985. To the south is a diminutive street called Maimonides Plaza. The library in this Sephardic congregation includes books in Spanish and Hebrew.
