Thessaloniki Jewish Heritage Private Tour
Discover Thessaloniki’s Jewish heritage, visiting the historic synagogue, Jewish Museum, and cultural monuments.
Begin at Thessaloniki's oldest surviving synagogue, built by Jews from Monastir. Its serene interior and elegant architecture make it one of the city's most moving landmarks. Your guide will share stories of Sephardic life, pre-WWII traditions, and how the synagogue endured the Nazi occupation.
Next, visit the Jewish Museum. Through rare photos, records, and personal artifacts, it vividly traces Thessaloniki's Jewish history.
Discover Casa Bianca, a 1911 neoclassical mansion shaped by romance and tragedy, then explore Villa Allatini, once a grand Jewish residence and later a site for official use.
Visit the Old Railway Station, the departure point for nearly 50,000 Thessaloniki Jews sent to Auschwitz. The memorial and panels honor their memory and connect the local story to the wider Holocaust tragedy. End at the "Menorah in Flames" sculpture, marking the site of public humiliation before the deportations.
