- Today we tour the ancient El Ghriba Synagogue (Arabic: كنيس الغريبة), located in the village of Hara Seghira on Djerba island in southern Tunisia. This synagogue is said to have been built at the time of the first Jewish
settlement in 586 BCE, shortly after the destruction of King Solomon’s temple in
Jerusalem, making it the oldest synagogue in North Africa, and one of the oldest documented synagogues in the world!

@@soleiltounsi6754 I did cover my head. You are asked to put a kippah on when you enter the building. Mine is clearly visible at 1:36 of the video.
Shalom!
What a great building.
Lots of love to all Jewish ✡️❤️❤️❤️ 🕎
From all the Imazighen of Tunisia 🇹🇳
The Jewish and the Imazighen of Tunisia lived in peace and harmony for 1000s of years.
One question plz.
I though the 1st temple was destroyed by the Roman.
Correct me if i’m wrong.
Have you been to the Jewish neighbour hood !!
They have the best street food. 🥘🥗🌮🥩🍛🍕🍳
You should try Brick from Isak shop.
He’s the best in Djerba Island. 💪✡️
Yes, Tunisia's Jewish and Imazighen populations have a complex and intertwined history. It's fascinating.
Yup, brik is highly recommended in my guidebook, especially from Brik Ishak. Delicious!
I think it was King Nebuchadnezzar II (from Babylonia) who destroyed the temple to punish the rebellious Kingdom of Judah. Although this seems to be under debate still: www.haaretz.com/israel-news/2021-06-13/ty-article/who-really-destroyed-solomons-temple-in-jerusalem/0000017f-f2dc-dc28-a17f-feff98f00000
