About
The Great Synagogue of Florence (Italian: Tempio Maggiore Israelitico di Firenze) is an Orthodox Jewish congregation and synagogue, that is located at Via Luigi Carlo Farini 4, in Florence, in Tuscany, Italy. Designed in the Italian and Moorish Revival styles, the synagogue was completed in 1882. The architects were Mariano Falcini, Professor Vincenzo Micheli, and Marco Treves, who was Jewish. Their design integrated elements of the Italian architectural tradition with Moorish decorative motifs. The Moorish Revival style was considered particularly suitable for a synagogue, as it was not used for churches and evoked the Islamic architecture of medieval Spain, a visual idiom often associated with Sephardic Jewish heritage, that is, the Jewish communities of the Iberian Peninsula before their expulsion in 1492.
