In the heart of Ghetto, the Jewish Museum contains a precious collection of objects and decors, dresses and books from the XVI-XIX centuries, which recounts the daily and ritual life of the quarter and the story of the Jewish community of Venice, in its key role for the artistic and economic growth of the city. The itinerary continues with the guided visit of the synagogues (five out of the seven of the Ghetto), which, despite being hardly recognizable from the outside, on the inside are like small jewels.
