Interior of the St John's Wood synagogue

The Saatchi Synagogue is an independent Orthodox Jewish synagogue that was founded in Maida Vale, London, in 1998.[1][2][3] The synagogue was founded by Charles Saatchi and Maurice Saatchi.[1][2][3][4][5] When it opened, its rabbi was Pinchas "Pini" Eliezer Dunner.[6][7][8]

The Saatchi Synagogue holds services on the site of the St John's Wood (United) Synagogue, and in 2018 plans were made to merge the two groups.[9]
