Jewish Community of Oporto

The European Commission announced in early October that Jewish life will be fostered in a Europe that was home to 9.5 million Jews before the Second World War and whose remaining 1.5 million are abandoning the Old Continent.

The history of the Jewish community of Oporto is much older than the official foundation of Portugal.

Its name is Campo da Igualdade Isaac Aboab, or the Isaac Aboab Field of Equality.
