B'nai Israel Temple is a historic Jewish synagogue at 249 S. 400 East in Salt Lake City, Utah.
The synagogue was built in 1890 and added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1978. The building was originally planned to be a "facsimile in miniature" of Berlin's Fasanenstrasse Synagogue, as most of the congregation had originated in Germany, but plans were changed during construction.[2] The synagogue was established in 1873.[3]
