The seven-branched menorah (or candlestick) of the Hebrews is seen in the prayer room of the Sabbioneta Synagogue. In the town of Sabbioneta, created in the 16th century by Prince Vespasiano I Gonzaga Colonna according to the Renaissance model, a Jewish quarter has been delimited. The synagogue was built in 1824 and has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 2008. It can be visited by tourists with a small museum that tells its history.
