Temple Emanuel is a Reform Jewish synagogue in Beaumont, Texas. It is located at 1120 Broadway.

The congregation began in September 1895, and its first building was completed in 1901. The current brick synagogue building was finished in 1923 and designed by Albert S. Gottlieb in the Byzantine Revival style, with a copper dome.

A standout feature is six large windows designed by Ze’ev Raban, each measuring 16 by 6 feet and depicting events from the lives of the prophets Jeremiah, Elijah, Elisha, Ezekiel, Moses, and Isaiah. The windows were commissioned in 1922 by Rabbi Samuel Rosinger.

In 1971, Temple Emanuel merged with Congregation Kol Israel, and in 1985 Rodef Shalom of Port Arthur joined Temple Emanuel.

The building materials are brick, copper, and limestone.
