We offer a great itinerary through the Rome Jewish Ghetto for those who want to see the enormous heritage of the Jewish culture.

The Rome Jewish community is the oldest in Europe, since appx. 150 b. C., when a few people came from the Holy Land to Ancient Ostia, the main Sea-Port of Rome and built their Synagogue ( now there are beautiful remains of the Old Temple in Ostia and we can set up a visit of Ancient Ostia: see our section Ostia & Tivoli ).

On request, we arrange for Jewish Tour Rome. We may plan to see a couple of itineraries, including also the Portico d' Ottavia, Tiber Island and Trastevere. Each corner is absolutely fascinating.

We will find out why the Jewish History of Rome is forever linked to the History of Rome itself: most of the current local Jewish community - 16.000 appx. - is more Roman than those who are non Jewish.

We will not tell you here the history of the Jewish Ghetto in Rome, as we would need hundreds of pages. We will be pleased to guide you throughout these magnificent parts of Rome. It is enough to consider that, coupled with a few more areas of Rome, the Rome Jewish Area is the most preserved old quarter of Rome downtown. Middle Ages, Legends, Renaissance and Baroque.
