THE DOORS OF THE TORAH ARON

The doors of the Torah Aron were brought by Mr. S. A. Nachon Z"l from an old synagogue in the town of Livorno, in the region of Toscana, Italy.

The Jewish Community there was established in 1595 and is still florishing.

The doors are from 1874, and were carved from wood.

Architect David Cassuto, a member of our community, had them incorporated into our modern Torah Aron.

THE PARTITIONS OF THE LADIES GALERIES

The partitions of the ladies Galeries were brought by Mr. Rinato Manshi Z"l from an old synagogue in the town of Pesaro, a city in the Italian region of Marche, capital of the Province of Pesaro e Urbino on the Adriatic Sea in the centre of Italy.

There was a Jewish comminity in Pesaro for about 750 years.

The original partition was carved from wood in 1700. Part of the current partition is crafted from aluminium alloy, and made to precisely match the original wood.
