Synagogue, Jewish temple in Castelletto district, Genoa, Italy
The synagogue features Romanesque and Oriental design elements, with a central hall flanked by two polygonal apses and decorated with marble finishes.
The current structure, inaugurated in 1935, replaced an 18th-century oratory near Malapaga Walls to accommodate the expanding Jewish population of Genoa.
The central hall includes a two-tier women's gallery and contains inscriptions from Psalms and Prophets that spell the name of benefactor Tobias Cohen Pavia.
Located at Via Bertora 6, the synagogue offers Shabbat services starting at 9:30 AM and requires advance contact with the secretary for attendance.
Artist Emanuele Luzzati created a wooden tevah shaped like a ship's lookout, decorated with tiles depicting the twelve tribes of Israel.
