Jewish community in Florence
The Jewish presence in Florence is inextricably bound up with the unmistakable green dome of the synagogue gracing the city’s skyline. Its harmonious presence still testifies today to Cavalier David Levi’s determination to build a “monumental synagogue worthy of the city”.
Opened in 1882 in the city’s “Mattonaia” neighbourhood, the synagogue is both the beating heart of Florence’s Jewish community and an integral part of the city’s history. Behind the cast-iron railing, set in a lush garden, we find the synagogue and the Jewish Museum with its superb collection of artistic Jewish ceremonial items and offering breathtaking views of the synagogue itself and the roofs of Florence.
