The Archive of the Jewish traditions and customs Benvenuto and Alessandro Terracini collects and preserves objects, documents and books from the Jewish tradition of Piemonte. Established almost forty years ago in Turin by a bequest of the respected linguist Benvenuto Terracini, its treasures span from ketubot to notary documents, maps and drawings of the Piedmontese synagogues and ghettos, as well as prayer books, music and literary examples of Jewish liturgy and language in the region.
