Temple B'nai Shalom (transliterated from Hebrew as "Sons / Children of Peace") is a former synagogue in Brookhaven, Lincoln County, Mississippi, in the United States. The building has been used as a history museum since 2009, operated as Lincoln County Historical and Genealogical Society Museum.
The congregation formed in 1894;[1] and a synagogue building was erected at Chickasaw and South Church Streets in 1896. The synagogue was deconsecrated in 2009[2] and the congregation donated the building to the Lincoln County Historical and Genealogical Society[3] to be used as a county history museum.
The white clapboard building is notable for its Moorish Revival Horseshoe arch windows, and for a truncated tower that "references the porthole of an Islamic minaret" with a slender Horseshoe arch window.[4]
