This exhibition is part of a shared experience between Trieste and Nice, cosmopolitan border cities. At the beginning of the last century, in Trieste, a large majority of the population was of Italian language and culture, living alongside a significant Slovene minority and a considerable minority of German language and culture. Other national communities, notably Greek and Serbian, also played a decisive role in the growth of the city, not to mention the Jewish community, which built the largest synagogue in Europe there.
Exhibition duration: March 3 to 17, 2017 – Hours: Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday from 10 AM to 12 PM.
