A remarkable synagogue with a Jewish museum in Rome.

On the banks of the Tiber, overlooking the old ghetto closed in 1870 after the capture of Rome, the great synagogue was built between 1901 and 1904 according to the plans of Vincenzo Costa and Osvaldo Armanni. At the request of the Jewish community of Rome and due to the lack of ancient models to follow, the architects opted for an eclectic style in order to create a unique and easily identifiable temple: its aluminum dome on a square base can be seen from anywhere in Rome. The building can be visited from the Jewish Museum.

majestueux comme l'est le musée juif
pour le prix de 11 euros vous pouvez visiter le musée juif avec une visite guidée de la synagogue. Le guide anglais semblait meilleur que le guide italien. La synagogue est particulière car c'est le seul bâtiment avec un dôme carré à Rome et le temple de culte des Juifs romains qui ont des cérémonies différentes de celles des autres Juifs. Le musée propose des vêtements et objets précieux comme dans les trésors des églises chrétiennes. Les tableaux de description qui donnent un aperçu de la religion juive et de l'histoire des Juifs sont intéressants.
