Had to go for a training in Charleston, here is a little history on Charleston...
Charleston is known as
The Holy City due to the prominence of churches on the low-rise cityscape, particularly the numerous steeples which dot the city's skyline, and for the fact that it was one of the few cities in the original
thirteen colonies to provide religious tolerance, albeit restricted to non-Catholics. Many
Huguenots found their way to Charleston.
[5] Charleston was also one of the first colonial cities after Savannah, Georgia to allow Jews to practice their faith without restriction.
Kahal Kadosh Beth Elohim, founded in 1749, is the fourth oldest Jewish congregation in the continental United States.
[6] Brith Sholom Beth Israel is the oldest
Orthodox synagogue in the South, founded by
Ashkenazi (
German and
Central European Jews) Jews in the mid-19th century
