Bereketzade, Büyük Hendek Cd. No:61, 34445 Beyoğlu/İstanbul, Türkiye
Neve Shalom Synagogue carries the profound legacy of Istanbul's Jewish community, reflecting the city's rich tapestry of cultures and faiths. Established in 1951 and serving as the largest synagogue in Turkey, Neve Shalom—whose name translates to "Oasis of Peace"—was designed by architect Elyo Ventura. Its elegant yet understated facade belies an interior adorned with striking stained glass windows, an expansive central dome, and graceful chandeliers, creating an atmosphere both intimate and grand. Beyond its architectural beauty, Neve Shalom stands as a resilient symbol of harmony and continuity, having overcome tragic moments in its history. Located in the vibrant district of Galata, amid bustling streets lined with cafes, boutiques, and historic buildings, the synagogue invites visitors to explore Istanbul's diverse heritage and the enduring spirit of its Jewish community.
