Discover the Synagogue of Siena, nestled in the heart of the ancient Jewish Ghetto, just a stone's throw from the Piazza del Campo. For centuries, Sienese Jews were confined within these walls until 1859. The Grand Duke of Tuscany, Cosimo I de Medici, extended the restrictive measures to Siena in 1571, despite the Jewish presence dating back to the 12th century.

Despite the limitations, the Jewish community thrived, contributing significantly to the city's economic and cultural growth. In 1786, the magnificent Synagogue of Siena was inaugurated. Today, it remains the spiritual center for the local Jewish community, showcasing a blend of Rococo and Neoclassical architectural influences.
