Synagogue of Sardis

The Synagogue of Sardis is among the largest and most well, preserved ancient synagogues found outside Israel.

Constructed under Roman rule, it attests to the presence of a robust Jewish community in the city and their incorporation into daily urban life.

Marble ornaments, writings, and mosaic pavement reveal religious identity and Roman art influence at the same time.

It is situated within Sardis, the synagogue provides a rare look at Jewish life in Asia Minor.
