The synagogue was built in 1614 AD and is in a peaceful wooded area. In the courtyard behind the synagogue, it is possible to find old Jewish graves, including one of a Jewish woman, dated 1264 AD.

The Jews arrived in Chendamangalam after the destruction of the second temple and the final desolation of Jerusalem in AD 69 and founded a colony. They moved to Fort Kochi in 1341 AD after the Great flood. All the 8 synagogues in Kerala built during the recent centuries — located at Chendamangalam, Paravoor, Mala, Kochi and Ernakulam — have similar traditional architectural features:
* a central bimah of brass or silver metal on a concrete or stone base
* an ark on the western wall
* a balcony above the eastern entry to the sanctuary that is used by the reader on certain holidays.
* a women's gallery behind the balcony, with a stairway leading up to it, usually from outside the building.

The Jewish community migrated to Israel in the 1950s and 1960s. Their synagogue is presently maintained by the archaeology department in association with the Kerala Tourism department.

Syrian Christians and Jews in Kerala Paravur and Chendamangalam Synagogues

What a surprise to learn that Kerala's main religion is Christianity and about its once Jewish presence. It is said Jews first arrived in 70 CE after the destruction of the Second Temple and received special protection from India's rulers.

All sights seen in this video are around a 1-1/2 hour drive from Cochin.

The Paravur Synagogue aka Parur Synagogue is the one of largest and most complete among the Jewish synagogues in Kerala, located in North Paravur (Parur). It is currently non-operational as a synagogue for worship. However, it has been renovated by the Government of Kerala and is now open to public visits as the Kerala Jews History Museum.

Jewish people (Malabar Jews) had been arriving in Kerala since 1st millennia BC for trading, and their communities were mostly settled around today's Kodungallur region (which was then a Roman trading port named Muziris) and Kollam. They received royal patronage and special rights from the local Chera kings such as Cheraman Perumal and established Synagogues at their respective settlements for public worship.This was documented in the copper plates dated 10th century AD issued by Bhaskara Ravi Varman to the Jewish community leader Joseph Rabban.

In the 14th century AD, after the Periyar Flood of 1341 (that also caused a Tsunami, according to some sources , the community had to relocate to nearby towns such as Paravur, Chendamangalam and Kochi. Memories of this incident were preserved by oral tradition through traditional songs in Jewish Malayalam.[

The Paravur Synagogue is among the oldest Synagogues that still exist in Kerala and is also the largest Synagogue complex. The current synagogue was built in 1615 AD at the Jewish street of Paravur and very close to the Paravur Market where the Jewish community had settled and worked as traders. However, traditional accounts hint at a much older heritage, indicating that it was built on top of the ruins of an older synagogue dated 1165 AD.

Although the community lived peacefully throughout their history among the locals, there were conflicts due to foreign invaders such as Mysore Kingdom (during the Malabar raids led by Hyder Ali and his son Tipu Sultan during the 18th century) and European colonizers such as Portuguese and Dutch during 16th and 17th centuries.

According to a traditional Jewish Malayalam song, the synagogue was put to fire in 1662, most likely by the Portuguese, at around the same time when the Paradesi Synagogue near Fort Kochi was also burnt.

After the modern State of Israel was established in 1948, the Paravur Jews started to make Aliyah.As of 1949, there were about three hundred Jews still living in Paravur, but most of them immigrated to Israel in large numbers by the mid 1950s.By 1970s, the public worship at the Synagogue ceased as the minyan (the quorum or minimum number of 10 Jewish adults required to conduct worship) could not be met and the Synagogue largely remained unattended during later decades. The last ever worship service was conducted in 1988.

According to a report by the International Survey of Jewish Monuments (ISJM), the original bimah and the ark (containing Torah scrolls) were moved to Israel in 1995 and preserved there.

In 1996, the synagogue was declared as a protected monument, however it continued to remain mostly neglected until 2009 when it was handed over to the Kerala State Department of Archaeology. Since 2010, the Government renovated the dilapidated structure as part of the Muziris Heritage Project and converted this into a museum to highlight the Jewish heritage of Kerala. They were opened to public in 2014.

The Paravur Synagogue is built with a unique blend of traditional Jewish Synagogue architecture as well as Kerala architectural styles. This is most evident in the use of Padippura (arched gateway) along the path that leads to the main building.
Similar to the architecture of other synagogues in Kerala, it has a balcony and a separate gallery for women to assemble, with direct access from outside through a staircase.

PRALAYANATHARAM CHENDAMANGALAM

Chendamangalam 12min
Chendamangalam
The flood that reveals the extent of suffering of the common people. The fruit of many days of hard work washed off, the lifelong earnings gone in a flash, everything submerged irretrievably. The Chendamangalam handloom is a heritage industry that have had many setbacks. It has struggled through and flourished back into existence several times.
The floods have dampened the enthusiasm of the weavers of Chendamangalam and the rejuvenation is only possible with Government aid. This documentary vents the voices of the workers especially the women folk. It calls for immediate action by the authorities, an eye opener to the realities of the post flood situation.
