Venice ghetto
Ghetto di Venezia, Venetian GhettoItaly, Venice
The Venetian Ghetto is a piece of land isolated by canals in the Cannaregio region. The ghetto is surrounded by canals and connected to the rest of Venice by three bridges, which were closed with gates in the evening.
Until now, a stone slab has been preserved in the Ghetto (at the entrance from the Fondamenta di Cannaregio), which explains the punishment to be subjected to a baptized Jew who continues to secretly observe Jewish rites. On the territory of the Ghetto there is a monument to the victims of the Holocaust by Arbit Blatas, the Jewish Museum, two active synagogues, a kosher restaurant and a Jewish library.
