About
The Dubrovnik Synagogue is on the upper floor of a residential building in Žudioska, the narrow Jewish Street that climbs from Stradun in the Old Town. It is still a place of worship, and the floor below holds a small museum of the city's Jewish community.
A travel writer who was shown round by a member of the community describes the prayer room and the old Torah scrolls in the museum, and visitors call it well worth a visit, with the museum a must.
