Sinagoga di Pitigliano, 16th century synagogue in Pitigliano, Italy.

The synagogue features a large arched portal leading to an open courtyard, with an entrance door displaying Hebrew inscriptions and religious texts.

The religious building, dating from 1598, was commissioned by weaver Leone di Sabato and underwent significant restoration in 1757 after the roof collapsed.

The synagogue contains wooden furnishings from the 16th and 17th centuries, including a central Tevà pulpit for Torah readings and the holy wooden Aròn.

The synagogue operates different schedules according to season, with extended hours from April to October and reduced hours from November to March.

The women's balcony retains its original gilded wooden grating decorated with plant motifs, representing one of the few remaining authentic elements.
