Beit Harambam Congregation (Hebrew: בית הרמב"ם, lit. 'House of the Rambam') is a Sephardi Orthodox Jewish congregation and synagogue, located in Northeast Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, in the United States. Founded in 1978, its membership is largely composed of Hebrew-speaking Israeli expatriates. Sta
rted as a basement minyan, the congregation purchased a small home in the 1980s, which was subsequently destroyed by arson in 2000. With significant funding from the Philadelphia Jewish community, the building was restored. The synagogue was further expanded with a larger sanctuary and a social hall, completed in 2011.
