Great Synagogue of Rome

Local nameTempio Maggiore di Roma
LocationSant'Angelo, Rome, Italy

As the name suggests, this synagogue is the largest Jewish place of worship in Rome, as well as one of the largest synagogues in Europe. There is also a museum in the building, which preserves and exhibits artifacts valuable to the Jewish people and their history.

The museum is organized into 7 rooms, each of which gives space to one specific topic, with the objects on display ranging from casts of ancient tombstones to modern-day photographs.

Due to the synagogue's importance for the Jewish community, it was visited by several popes, including Francis in 2016.
