Tephereth Israel Synagogue is a synagogue at 76 Winter Street in downtown New Britain, Connecticut. The congregation meets at a two-story brick temple with Colonial Revival and Renaissance features, designed by Hartford architect Adolf Feinberg and built in 1925. It is distinguished by towers flanking a central entry section, and the round-arch tops of windows and doorways. Services are usually conducted every Saturday morning, led by Rabbi Robert Schectman.
The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1995.
