A tour of Jewish Rome is a fascinating experience that spans over 2,000 years of history and culture.

We will start from the Colosseum, one of the wonders of the modern world, and then head towards the Arch of Titus, where Roman soldiers are depicted carrying away the loot looted from the Temple of Jerusalem, including the Menorah (seven-branched candelabra).

We will continue towards the Baths of Caracalla, whose construction was also carried out with Jewish labor, and then head towards the Mausoleum of the Fosse Ardeatine, a place of remembrance linked to one of the most tragic massacres of the Second World War in which 335 people were killed, including 75 Jews.

You will then head towards Via Appia Antica, one of the most important and ancient roads in Rome and the Catacombs of Vigna Randanini, built between the 2nd and 4th centuries AD, which testify to the presence of a Jewish community well integrated into society but with different funerary practices compared to pagans and Christians.

We will then visit the Roseto Comunale, once the site of a Jewish cemetery, and then go to San Gregorio Divina Pietà, where from the 16th to the 19th century, Roman Jews were forced to attend mandatory sermons every Saturday afternoon.

We will then end our tour by visiting the Great Synagogue and the Jewish Ghetto, one of the oldest in the world dating back to 1,555 and today a neighborhood rich in history, culture and Jewish traditions, with a lively community still present.
