Looking for Synagogue in Tenerife or elsewhere in Canary Islands
 
Hi,

I've heard that there is a synagogue in Tenerife or possibly Gran Canaria. Has anyone heard of one, been there, or know how to locate it?

Thanks,
s

Sapir:

Reportedly, in the Canaries there is a sinagoga on La Palma Island, but none on Tenerife Island, although there are a few Jews living on the latter. In my research I have found nothing more about it other than a mini-report that shows 2% of the 90,00 people on the island identified as Jews.
Having visited over 100+ synagogues worldwide I would happily share the list. Please write and I'll send immediately by return email.
