The Vercelli Synagogue (Template:Langx) is an Orthodox Jewish congregation and synagogue, located at Via Foà 70, in Vercelli, Italy.[1] Designed in the Moorish Revial style by Marco Treves, an architect born in Vercelli who also designed the Great Synagogue of Florence,[2] the synagogue was completed in 1878.
History
The synagogue features red-and-white masonry courses and a flat, tripartite facade with a raised central portion, that resembles a number of other European and American synagogues with designs inspired by Vienna's Leopoldstädter Tempel, by architect Ludwig Förster.[2]
A major restoration project was launched in 2007.[3]
On 23 November 2013, in an antisemitic act, two swastikas were found sprayed on its walls.[4]
