Very nice Jewish museum! Lot of things to see about the Jewish community of Porto. Photo's and scene of a movie are very interesting.
A beautiful story behind it. Great tour.
Looks fabulous on the outside. I have been told it was even greater on the inside, but I wasn't allowed to enter on the day I was there.
My family and I had a lovely visit. Learned a great deal about the synagogue, the community, and it’s founding. Thank you for the hospitality and the quick tour.
The synagogue is beautiful and fulfilling its mission to restore Jewish life to the incredible medieval city of Porto. It is a beacon of the 2,000 year old Jewish history of this city and country. They now have an important new museum dedicated to the Jewish history of Porto. The artifacts come from antiquity, the Middle Ages, and from the 20th century. The museum represents the Jewish renaissance that is currently taking place in Porto and Portugal. I learned so much about my heritage from our visit and from Ilan, our guide through the museum. The synagogue building itself is now only open for religious services, so make sure to register in advance with proper identification via their website.
Build in 1938, there are actually two synagogues: a large two story one for the for the Sephardic, and a smaller one below ground for the Ashkenazi. It is one of the few places where the locals can buy kosher foods.
