Schola levantina Facciata

Sometimes called the Turkish Synagogue, the Schola Levantina was founded in 1541 as the first to serve the Ghetto's Sephardic community. Its renovated 17th-century interiors are often attributed to Baldassare Longhena. It's accessible via the Friday tour with the Museo Ebraico.
