Slat Al Fassiyine Synagogue, Fes, Fes-Boulemane, Morocco
Main prayer room of the Slat Al Fassiyine Synagogue or Synagogue of the Prayers of the Fesians, with horseshoe arch niche housing the Torah scroll, built in the 17th century in the medina of Fes, Fes-Boulemane, Northern Morocco. The synagogue was built by Jews expelled from Andalusia who were not welcomed at other synagogues in Fes. The synagogue was closed in the 1960s but reopened in 2013 after restoration led by Simon Levy of the Judeo-Moroccan Cultural Society, with funding from MoroccoÃs Jewish community and the Federal Republic of Germany. The medina of Fes was listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1981. Picture by Manuel Cohen
