Sinagoga Bet Eliahu
It is in the area of the old Jewish quarter, on the street Rua Fonte da Rosa, and is very popular among Jews, who make their prayers there, and curious people from other religions, who seek to know more about the Jewish community. Inaugurated in 1996, the Synagogue can only be visited by appointment, at the Jewish Museum. It is oriented towards Jerusalem and its name is a tribute to the worthy Jew who financed its construction. The Jewish community also has its own cemetery.
