Description

In the video which I've linked, to see the part which concerns the Synagogue skip to 02.15 there you can see the detailing of my beautiful synagogue.

The first three screenshots are taken by Jeremy Thunder.

The Portuguese Synagogue is a late 17th-century Sephardic synagogue in Amsterdam, completed in 1675.
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. The synagogue remains an active place of worship and is also a popular tourist attraction.

The Portuguese Synagogue has one of the oldest Jewish libraries in the world and filled with original and rare texts and is constantly called upon for academic and rabbinical research. It was founded in 1616 and has been housed in the historical complex of the Portuguese Jewish community of Amsterdam since 1675.

Very cool! My ancestors were a part of this community. The walls surrounding the Synagogue are actually part of it and are buildings, including the Winter Synagogue where many services are held. Is there any way you could update this to include the surrounding walls?
