A look into Italy’s Jewish history
Most people identify Italy as one of the most Catholic country, but actually in Rome there is one of the largest Jewish communities in the world.
Tour starts by the Ponte Sisto bridge and proceed to the picturesque Trastevere district. This colourful area with narrow streets and lively piazzas, is famous for the typical Roman nightlife. Crossing the Tiber river through the Tiber Island, you will reach the nearby ghetto.
Strolling down tiny streets and pedestrian areas of the quarter, it will be possible to get in touch with the past and the present life of one of the oldest existing Jewish communities. Tour ends in the Jewish Museum of Rome, located in the great Synagogue building, showing magnificent artifacts and precious documents, witness of the 2000 year old history of Jews in Rome.
