SYNAGOGUE (SINAGOGA)
One of the oldest synagogues in Europe in Dubrovnik, dated 1352, holding remarkable pieces as its small museum.
Built in 1352 in what was once the Jewish ghetto, it is one of the oldest synagogues in Europe. A Sephardic Jewish community fleeing the Portuguese and Spanish Reconquest settled in Dubrovnik in the 15th century, where a 1546 decree authorized their presence. Its members became eminent doctors, merchants and government officials... The synagogue and its small museum house a number of remarkable items, including a 13th-century Torah and a Menorah. Today, the Jewish community of Ragusa numbers 55 members.
