The construction of this Byzantine-revival behemoth was overseen by Edgar Magnin, dubbed 'Rabbi of the Stars' due to his numerous Hollywood pals. Movie theaters inspired the synagogue's design, while the impressive murals, depicting 3000 years of Jewish history, were commissioned by Hollywood Warner Brothers moguls. Guided tours of the building are available by emailing or calling in advance.
