Overview

A historical tour that will wind through the places that witnessed an uninterrupted alternation of dramatic events and moments of rebirth of the Jewish community of Rome, which has been present for over two thousand years and whose troubled history has been identified with a well-defined area, in the heart of the city, the Jewish Quarter, which everyone still calls the Ghetto today.
We will ideally follow the chronology of these events, moving from the Portico d'Ottavia through picturesque alleys, the last testimony of the narrow medieval layout of the Ghetto. Following the traces of a rich cultural heritage and traditions in the old Piazza Giudea and Piazza delle Cinque Scole, we will arrive at the urban changes of emancipation, embodied by the new Synagogue, to conclude in the places that were the scene of the Nazi round-up and even more recent deaths.
Along our narrative we will also encounter many film locations: the Jewish Quarter, in fact, has always had a strong cinematic vocation.
