History

The synagogue was built in 1598, and served as the place of worship for the town's Jewish community  [ it ] for over three centuries. Due to a loss of the town's Jews by the early 20th century, the synagogue became inactive by 1936. [1] The furnishings were transferred to the Central Synagogue of Milan  [ it ]. They are currently located in a small oratory in its basement. [2] The large Torah ark, a gift from the Jewish community of Mantua [3] given in 1635 (constructed in 1543), [4] was brought to Israel and is exhibited in Jerusalem at the Uri Nahon Museum of Jewish-Italian Art. [5] It contains two side columns surmounted by two pots with large curved handles and a tympanum.

The building was damaged during bombing during WWII and was later turned into a private home [6] with traces of the old rooms still preserved, such as the womens' section. [7] In 2006, a committee was set up in the commune for the recovery of the former synagogue. The 2012 Northern Italy earthquakes damaged the structural integrity of the building. [8] The following year, wooden external supports were added to prevent further damage, with the total estimated repair cost to the building being €235,900. [1]
