The Neveh Shalom Synagogue (Hebrew: בית הכנסת נווה שלום, lit.
'House of Peace'; Dutch: Synagoge Neve Shalom) is a Reform Jewish congregation and synagogue, located in Paramaribo, Suriname.
[2] The first Surinamese synagogue was located in the Jodensavanne, originally built of wood between 1665 and 1671 (but already rebuilt with bricks), however many had moved to Paramaribo.
[3] The synagogue was sold to the Ashkenazim in 1735, and the Sephardim formed a separate community known as Tzedek ve-Shalom.
[6] Over the years the synagogue has transitioned from Orthodox to liberal, accepting interfaith couples and non-Jews.
