ユダヤ博物館と古代ジュデッカ - 1 時間のプライベート ガイド ツアー

My hotel got info wrong that 20 minute tour was at specific times. So grateful that Matias gave me 20 minute private tour when I was there for 25 euros. He was interesting and really brought the spaces and people associated with the synagogue and the building of it to life. Great visit.

We had a terrific experience at the Jewish Museum in Lecce and learned a great deal about the Jewish experience. Our tour guide, Mattia, was passionate, informed and engaging. I highly recommend this tour.

So interesting to find out about the forgotten Jewish communities of the Puglia region. Our guide was fabulous and obviously very passionate about the subject of resurrecting the knowledge about this history.

Very interesting learning about the forgotten Jewish Communities of Puglia. Highly recommend

The museum is a wonderful gem and we learned things about the Jewish experience in Puglia during the 25th century and after WW 2 with the DP camps. Our guide Chiara was wonderful.

I recently had the privilege with my husband of visiting the museum I have been to Lecce 3 times before but had not visited the museum. We are Jewish and it was incredible for us to learn about the history. Chiara was our guide and was brilliant. The museum honours the history of the Jews in Lecce. It was one of the highlights of our visit . Lecce is the most beautiful places in Puglia. Thank you ✡️

I would absolutely recommend visiting the museum. Our guide (Mattei) was extremely engaging, he took time to explain artefacts and the history of the synagogue. The presentation about the displaced camps was fascinating and very moving. The exhibition of Adi Kichekmacher’s art was worth a visit on its own!

The guide Chiara was knowledgeable, offered insight into broader Jewish encounters in Puglia, The AI assisted video presentations were good for all ages. A must if you have interest in history of “Dead Jews”communities. The book of Jews in the Salento sold at the Museum is recommended reading.

This was one of the most fascinating and meaningful experiences we had in Lecce. The museum itself is relatively new, having been uncovered only about a decade ago after a local family helped bring attention to the site’s hidden history. We originally visited because we were curious about why one of the nearby streets was called “Synagogue Street,” and we left with a deep understanding of the rich Jewish history of Lecce and Puglia. The museum beautifully tells the story of the Jewish community that once thrived here—how Jewish people came to the region, the important role they played in local life, why they were eventually forced to leave, and what became of the Jewish quarter afterward. It sheds light on a part of Lecce’s history that many visitors might otherwise never discover. What made the experience especially memorable was that the guides are archaeologists themselves. Their passion and expertise brought the site to life, and they were able to answer every question with incredible detail and insight. It felt less like a museum tour and more like a conversation with the people actively uncovering and preserving this history. The museum also does an excellent job of using modern technology, including AI and multimedia elements, to help visitors visualize the past and connect with the stories of the people who lived there centuries ago. I highly recommend this museum to anyone visiting Lecce, whether you have a personal connection to Jewish history or simply enjoy learning about the layers of history that shape a place. It provides a powerful and moving perspective on the city’s identity and is truly a hidden gem.

Chaira Was super knowledgeable And such a pleasant tour guide. We are grateful To the non-Jewish families who ensir d that the Jewish people and history in lecce was not forgotten!! The AI used in the movies to educate us about the former Jewish population here was incredibly meaningful. This is a must visit!
