Building of the Public Prosecutor (prev church) Willemstad Curacao Dutch Antilles -150424 (1)

            Completed in 1867, Temple Emanu-El served as the worship house of the Dutch Reformed Jewish congregation who had separated themselves from the Orthodox Jewish congregation a few years earlier. It served as their temple until 1963, when the two congregations reunited once more and started holding joint services back in the original Mikve Israel Temple (which was renamed to "Mikve Israel - Emanu-El").

The building is a perfect example of Curacao's 19th century neoclassical architecture.

In 1995 the temple was transferred to the Curacao Monuments Foundation who restored the building to is old glory and leased it for various worthy functions. It currently houses the Public Prosecutor's Office.
