The Great German Schola
Built in 1528 the Great German Schola, of Ashkenazi rite, is the first synagogue of the Ghetto. It was restored in late baroc period while in the early Nineteenth some problems of statics caused the moving of the pulpit opposite the ‘Aròn Ha Qòdesh not to charge too much on the floor. The irregular plant of the Great German Schola is made harmonical by an elliptic women’s gallery and by the decorations of the walls covered with “marmorino” and by an inscription, the Ten Commandments, in golden letters with red background running all over the walls of the cultural room.
