SINAGOGA DI VERCELLI

The presence of a small Jewish community in Vercelli is documented since 1446 but is it only since the emancipation in 1848 that its numerical dimensions became such as to require the construction of a more suitable place of worship to hold over 600 people. The previous modest building was thus replaced by a large Temple in a Moresque style constructed in 1878 to the design of the architect Giuseppe Locarni. The large facade is characterised by white and blue bicolour sandstone strips and by hints of exoticism with battlements and turrets with “onion-shaped” domes.
