Ohave Shalom Synagogue (Woodridge, New York)
Ohave Shalom Synagogue, also referred to as the Woodridge Shul, is an Orthodox Jewish synagogue, that practices in the Ashkenazi rite, located at 14 Maurice Rose Street in Woodridge, in the Catskills region of southeast New York, in the United States. The brick building was erected in 1930 by a splinter group from what was then the village's only synagogue, later absorbed into Ohave Shalom itself. Its interior is decorated with paintings on religious themes. It was not the only synagogue in Sullivan County ever built with such decoration, but it is the only one where the paintings survive, although they are not as extensive as they were when the synagogue was built. The synagogue was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on November 22, 2000. In 2020, the congregation launched an urgent appeal for funds to support the ongoing maintenance and restoration of the historical synagogue.
