Discover a different side of Venice on a guided walking tour through the Jewish Ghetto and the Cannaregio district. Stroll through this historic neighborhood and uncover its deep Jewish heritage through stories, landmarks, and hidden corners. Begin in the Cannaregio district, a charming residential area that still reflects the city’s Jewish influence with signs in Hebrew and Italian leading to the Synagogue. Explore the Old and New Ghetto areas, filled with artisan workshops, galleries, and traditional delis. Learn about the origins of the Jewish Ghetto established in 1516, when Venetian Jews were confined to the island and homes were built upward to accommodate the growing population. Walk past important sites including the Deportation Memorial, the Levantine Synagogue, the Jewish Museum, and the Antichita al Ghetto antique store, as your guide shares stories of faith and resilience that shaped this historic district.
Visit the Levantine and Spanish Synagogues and gain a deeper understanding of Venice’s Jewish heritage from expert guides of the Jewish Museum. Although the museum is currently under restoration, this exclusive tour offers a rare chance to experience the community’s history up close. Learn how Napoleon removed the Ghetto gates, allowing Jews to live freely across Venice for the first time. Today, the area remains rich in culture, with Jewish bakeries, restaurants, and craft shops preserving centuries-old traditions. Conclude your journey by exploring the Ghetto’s historic architecture and monuments that stand as enduring symbols of resilience, identity, and cultural pride in the heart of Venice.
