This is a really interesting synagogue. I haven't visited it yet, but I will in the future. I have passed by, and been intrigued by it but have not taken the time to stop. I found this congregation when searching the Window of the Month on the Michigan Stained Glass Census web site. One of the most interesting facts I found on that page has to do with the artist of the stained glass, who is French born. Since I am planning a fall trip to France, I will be researching more about this artist, Robert Pinart, before I go and trying to capture some good photos while there.
You can see this synagogue by going to: 27375 Bell Road, Southfield, MI 48034. If you have already been there, have pictures, or stories about it... please let me know. A good history of the building, the stained glass, the congregation, and the artist can be found at the links below.
