Hundreds of candles illuminate the perfectly intact 17th-century interior. Visitors to the smaller buildings in the complex will find treasure chambers containing a unique collection of ceremonial objects made of silver, gold, brocade, and silk.

Amazing this synagouge is still standing, built in 1600's when Jews were expelled from Portugal. No electricity or heat, but we were here on a beautiful day. The audio guide and map are good. Only downside is they only sell a combo ticket to the Jewish museum, which we didn't have time for. Would have preferred just a synagouge ticket

We bought tickets to the synagogue & museum across the street. Worth going to both to learn about Jewish life here in Amsterdam. Both had some construction going on but luckily not major. It's good to see that they are doing upkeep but you can still enough going to see. I feel it's important to go & support Jewish culture. I like to buy items from the gift shops too while at any European Synagogue or museum.

Le prix est un peu élevé, mais il y a un audioguide gratuit lequel va grandement aider à la visite.
3 zones :
le tour de la Synagogue, ou il y a peu de choses a voir, au fond, on peut monter voir la galerie des Femmes.
Au sous-sol, de suite a droite en entrant, il y a la chambre des trésors, ou surtout on peut suivre un petit documentaire qui explique toute l'histoire de ce lieu, très intéressant. A faire en premier pour mieux comprendre le reste.
Enfin, au centre, le principal, la Synagogue elle-même, ou il y règne une agréable odeur particulière.
Le billet permet également de visiter le musée juif, juste à coté, dans le mois qui suit.
