Saluzzo’s small Jewish quarter maintains its former appearance in the area around Via Deportati Ebrei. In one of the courtyards on this street stands a building containing a synagogue on its third floor. Constructed in the eighteenth century and remodeled in 1832, the prayer hall was designed to accommodate more than 300 persons. Notice the beautiful carved door, as well as the gilt wood aron and the tevah dating from the eighteenth century.
In an effort to resist the rise of anti-Semitism since 2023 and to continue sharing Italy’s Jewish cultural heritage, numerous events have been organised in recent years as part of European Jewish Culture Days. Among these was a guided tour of the synagogue in Saluzzo on 14 September 2025.
