I am trying to find all the synagoues in Henderson county but have not been able to locate anything with a web search. Any ideas?

There was one synagoue in Hendersonville for years but closed in the late 1980s or early 1990s. It was located on King Street across from the old Belk Department Store parking lot. You'd probably have to go to Asheville.

Thanks for correcting me. I've been away from Hendersonville for years and didn't realize there was another congregation in town.

Sounds like the King Street was the same group that relocated to the Laurel Park location.
