The Jewish Ghetto, Venice






The word "ghetto" means factory or foundry. It was into the factory area that the Jews were sent and forced to live in Venice.  The word has come to mean any area were a minority is made to stay. We were in the Ghetto for the Jewish Holy Days and enjoyed great food and good company. Oh, and the duck? They love U of O there too...
