Bais Medrash Shomrei Mishmeres Hakodesh
Continuation of the Great Jewish Orthodox Synagogue in Baltimore
Over a century ago, a Shul known to many as Shomrei Mishmeres or the Lloyd
Street synagogue was established in downtown Baltimore, functioning as a
center for Jewish orthodoxy in Maryland from 1905-1963. Its spiritual leader,
Rabbi Avraham Schwartz, becomes known as the "chief rabbi" of the Orthodox
East European Jewish community. Shomrei Mishmeres occupies the
Synagogue until disbanding in the 1950s.
In October of 2006, Rabbi Chaim Schwartz, grandson and namesake of one of
the three trustees of Shomrei Mishmeres, Hyman S. Schwartz, opens a Bais
Medrash on Strathmore Ave., in the upper Park Heights area, to resurrect the
name and mission of Shomrei Mishmeres Hakodesh.
