Synagogue of Livorno, Modernist synagogue in Livorno, Italy.

The concrete structure features a central bimah surrounded by amphitheater seating, with a red stained glass installation in the upper apse section.

The building replaced the 1603 synagogue that Nazi forces destroyed during World War II, with construction starting in 1958 and completion in 1962.

The synagogue incorporates marble elements from the previous temple and houses a wooden Torah ark from 1708, transferred from the Synagogue of Pesaro.

The synagogue contains the Oratorio Lampronti winter prayer space in its lower level, equipped with facilities for disabled visitors.

The reinforced concrete design by architect Angelo Di Castro represents the tent used during the biblical Exodus through its symmetrical layout.
