The Grand Synagogue of Tunis (Шаблон:Lang-fr) is a synagogue inside the Tunisian capital of Tunis.
History
20th century
The idea for a synagogue was originally requested by the 19th-century Italian Jewish statesman Шаблон:Ill, and finally established in 1937 by French architect Шаблон:Ill, who chose to design it in the Art Deco architectural style.[1] The synagogue was shut down by Nazi Germany during the German occupation of Tunisia, but resumed operations after the country was liberated by Allied forces.[2]
In 1967, anti-Jewish rioters motivated by the then-ongoing Six-Day War trashed and looted the synagogue, burning it to the ground and destroying the sacred Torah scrolls, resulting in the abandonment of the building. In the 1990s Zine El Abidine Ben Ali funded the building's restoration.[1][2]
21st century
In 2011 Islamic extremist rioters attacked the synagogue and damaged it, chanting Khaybar, Khaybar during the riot.[1]
Tariq Ahmad, Baron Ahmad of Wimbledon toured the Grand Synagogue during a two-day visit to Tunisia in early June 2022.[3] Шаблон:AnchorOn 24 June 2022, a person ran towards the synagogue and stabbed two officers, lightly injuring them.[4][5] Authorities identified the stabbing as a terrorist attack and said its perpetrator had previously been arrested on terrorism and violence-related charges.[4][6]
