Subj : (Italy) Foundation for Jewish Culture New Online Portal Exploring Jewis To : Jan Meisels Allen From : Jan Meisels Allen janmallen@att.net Date : Thu Sep 06 2018 08:22 pm From: jewishgen@lyris.jewishgen.org (Jan Meisels Allen janmallen@att.net) X-No-archive: yes For those who may be planning to visit or studying Italy, Italy's Foundation for Jewish Culture has a new online portal which may help you with the country's Jewish heritage-from ancient Rome to the current times. Go to: http://www.visitjewi####aly.it/en/ where you can search by town, using photos or a drop down box. One may search by synagogues, cemeteries, Jewish neighborhoods and museums and memorials. While they do not list who is buried in the Jewish cemeteries they give information on them which may help you if you are searching for someone buried in one of them. In the Jewish neighborhoods they also include the ghettos of the past.
