Jewish Museum in Florence

The Jewish Museum is situated inside the synagogue on two floors of the monumental building that hosts the prayer hall.
The tour is divided into two sections: on the first floor we find the ceremonial furnishings and accoutrements used in the synagogue, silverware and textiles from the old synagogues in Florence’s now demolished ghetto and photographs and documents from the archives telling the story of the city’s Jewish community. While the second floor houses items used for worship in the home.
The tour ends with the “Room of Memory”, devoted to the Holocaust, and with the “Immersive room” where, thanks to a unique sensory experience, visitors are immersed in the mesmerising story of the construction of Florence synagogue.
The Museum is a truly atmospheric experience offering visitors breathtaking views of the prayer hall and the roofs of Florence.
