The Venetian Jewish ghetto was established over 500 years ago, this city in the city has had a lasting cultural impact on Venetian language, cuisine, music and dance.

Here is where the actual word ghetto was coined, inspired by the old foundry, called “Geto or Gheto” in Venetian; this is one of the most suggestive and secretive areas in the city, a small island, surrounded by canals, whose access is allowed only by two bridges.
