Places to see in ( Siena - Italy ) Sinagoga di Siena
The Sienna synagogue is a notable, historic synagogue in Siena, Italy. A substantial Jewish community is recorded in Siena beginning in the 14th century. In 1571 the Medici restricted Jewish residence to a defined neighborhood, or ghetto, and it was in this neighborhood that a synagogue was built on the Vicole dell Scotte very close to the Piazza del Campo. The Jews were emancipated from the requirement of living in a ghetto in 1860.
The present synagogue was erected in 1786 on the site of the older synagogue. Because Jews in that era were prohibited from building houses of worship identifiable from the street, the stone facade of the four story building is plain, resembling neighboring residential buildings. The sanctuary is located on the first floor (one flight up from street level). It has an elaborate neoclassical interior, with a lofty baroque ceiling featuring a large crowned tablet of the Ten Commandments enthroned in clouds of glory.
Two tiers of balconies on the building's third and fourth stories have views into the room through elaborate baroque grills. Furniture is arranged in the historic style of the Italian Jewish community, with the bimah in the center of the room. The Torah Ark is a classical marble cabinet with marble pillars and entablature towering almost the height of the room.
The architect was Giuseppe del Rosso of Florence, the master builders were Niccolo Ianda and Pietro Rossi. The synagogue is open to visitors. The historic Jewish cemetery of Sienna also survives and is open to visitors.

Florence’s Synagogue
The green dome of Florence-s synagogue is one of the most noticeable landmarks on the city’s skyline. It is the centre-point for Jewish people in Florence, and tells a fascinating history of a community which dates back centuries.
Florence’s Jewish Museum
Florence’s synagogue is one of Europe’s largest and most beautiful and nearby is the Jewish museum which records the long history of Jews in the city
Florence: The Synagogue and Jewish Museum
In 1868 David Levi, President of the Hebrew University, bequeathed his possessions for the building of a Great Synagogue in Florence, one of the largest synagogues in South-central Europe. It was built between 1874 and 1882 by the architects Marco Treves, Mariano Falcini and Vincenzo Micheli.
The doors of the Holy Ark, before which a light burns perpetually, still bear scars inflicted by the bayonets of fascist desecrators. During the Nazi occupation the synagogue was used as a garage, and it was also mined by the retreating Germans.
The names of 248 Florentine Jews put to death by the Nazis are recorded in a large inscription in the garden of the temple, where a smaller plaque lists Jews who fell fighting for Italy during the First World War.
The history of the Florentine community is illustrated by a Museum on the first floor, divided into two sections: one illustrates the history of the Jews in Florence, the other displays religious and ceremonial objects.

Sinagoga di Firenze. Visita guidata.
Il Tempio Maggiore Israelita di Firenze rappresenta una delle testimonianze storiche più suggestive della libertà politica e religiosa, la cosiddetta emancipazione ebraica, raggiunta dalla comunità fiorentina dopo la proclamazione dell'Unità d'Italia avvenuta nel 1861. Solo a a partire da questo momento sarà infatti possibile pensare all'edificazione di una sinagoga monumentale, inaugurata nel 1882, dalle architetture che si distinguono in un insolito, per Firenze, ed esotico stile moresco - particolarmente significative sono le decorazioni parietali e i mosaici che rivestono l'aula di culto - che rivendica le proprie origini mediorientali già in parte rievocate nel nome stesso che riporta alla memoria il Tempio di Gerusalemme.
