The
Old Ohavi Zedek Synagogue (affectionately known as "OZ") is the oldest known Jewish house of worship in Vermont and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
It was the first synagogue built in Burlington, built in 1887. That congregation moved to a new facility a few blocks away in 1958; this is still an active synagogue.
