The monumental Synagogue in via San Francesco, one of the biggest in Europe. The ghetto streets with their antique shops. And the ancient cemetery, the Jewish Museum Carlo and Vera Wagner set in the steep via del Monte, also remembered by the poet Umberto Saba, and the Risiera of San Sabba, everlasting memory of the Nazi nightmare.
These are the main and the best known places of the Jewish itineraries in Trieste. The route that links historical and traditional aspects of local Judaism also includes less well known but just as striking halts.
