Terracina Cathedral

The building has undergone various interventions and restorations, including that of the 11th century, that of the 13th century and, above all, the restoration of the 18th century, which reduced the church from five naves to three with the construction of side chapels and the barrel vaulted ceiling in place of the Romanesque farmhouses.

The Jewish architect Emanuel Marcus Rood (also the architect of the Central Israelite Nursing Service in Jacob Obrechtstraat) designed the building, which was built in neo-Dutch Renaissance style. Because many diamond workers felt at home here, the synagogue was also called the 'Diamond Synagogue'.
