Portuguese Synagogue, Amsterdam
Thired In The Series Of Miniatures Of Historic Synagogues
Designed By Eliezer Weishoff

The thired miniature in the series of historic synagogues honors the Portuguese Synagogue, Amsterdam.

The Portuguese Synagogue is a late 17th-century Sephardic synagogue in Amsterdam, completed in 1675. Esnoga is the word for synagogue in Judaeo-Spanish. The Amsterdam Sephardic community was one of the largest and richest Jewish communities in Europe during the Dutch Golden Age, and their very large synagogue reflected this.
