150 Years of History of the Sephardi Synagogue at Manchester Jewish Museum

As part of the 150th anniversary of the Spanish and Portuguese Synagogue at Manchester Jewish Museum, 14 significant items from the collection will be displayed. The synagogue, which was opened in 1874, was a testament to Manchester’s growing Sephardi community at the time and features a succah with a sliding roof. It has also undergone extensive renovations and now includes a modern gallery, café, shop, learning studio and kitchen, as well as the synagogue, which is now part of the permanent exhibition.

Until 6 January
