One of the largest synagogues in Europe, it was designed to cater for a growing community of over 6000 at the turn of the 20th century; a community which was tragically decimated during the Second World War. With its space, Greek cross floor plan and rose window, it has the air of a catholic Church. There are very interesting bilingual guided tours in Italian/English 1-2 times a day from Sunday to Thursday.

The synagogue has very specific visiting hours, and you really have to be on time. The building itself is beautiful and fascinating, both from a religious standpoint and from a historical perspective. The guide we had gave explanations mostly in Italian, but she translated to English, and she answered questions. She was pleasant and very well informed. Definitely worth a visit.

Historical Trieste synagogue in the center of Trieste, the current building dating over 100 years. Unfortunately we went on Saturday so it was closed. However the architecture is stunning and worth walking around the outside.

Bellissima esperienza che ha arricchito mente, cuore ed anima. Coinvolgente il percorso effettuato con la nostra guida, che ci ha fatto accomodare, spiegandoci poi con cura il significato della Sinagoga a Trieste, spaziando con disinvoltura tra passato e presente. Accurata anche la spiegazione in inglese (erano presenti non italiani), con particolari inediti rispetto alle spiegazioni in italiano. Tante le scoperte e gli approfondimenti della cultura e delle tradizioni ebraiche che vi attendono in questa splendida Sinagoga, che risulta essere la conferma della multietnicità culturale e religiosa di Trieste

Die Triester Synagoge beeindruckt durch ihre Pracht, auch wenn sie bereits seit 1912 genutzt wird. Im Inneren erinnert sie mit ihrer intensiven Ornament Gestaltung mit goldener Decke über dem Thora Schrein an Kathedralen wie Monreale in Palermo. Sie wurde seinerzeit für ca. 5000 Gläubige konzipiert.Gleichzeitig hat sie die Besonderheit, zwei unterschiedliche und getrennte Ausübung des jüdischen Ritus räumlich zu ermöglichen. Erstaunlicherweise hat das Gebäude die antisemitisch terroristische Besatzung durch die deutsche Wehrmacht überstanden.

Interesting and beautiful...but very limited opening times. Be on time, because it is run by guided tour only! 7.-/person. Explanations in Italian and English.
