The Synagogue of Casale Monferrato which was built in 1595 is particularly known for its exquisite Baroque interior with walls and ceiling embellished with elaborate painting carving and gilding. It is located in Vicolo Salmone Olper an alleyway in the traditionally Jewish quarter of Casale Monferrato which in the eighteenth century became the city’s ghetto. The plain building houses a clandestine synagogue giving no indication of its purpose as a Jewish house of worship.
