Temple Beth Israel is a historic Jewish synagogue building at 21 Charter Oak Avenue in Hartford, Connecticut. It is a 2-1/2 story brick structure with a brownstone foundation and stone trime. It was designed by George Keller and built in 1875-76 for a Jewish congregation established in 1843. It is the only known High Victorian Romanesque work of Keller, who was one of Hartford's leading architects of the second half of the 20th century. The temple was used by that congregation until 1935, when it was sold to the Calvary Temple congregation, which occupied it until 1974.
The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1978.
