DEAR FRIENDS,

Welcome to the Jewish Community of the Algarve, a vibrant and welcoming modern Orthodox community dedicated to sharing authentic Judaism and uniting Jews from all corners of the world.

​

Since our humble beginnings in 2012, we have grown into a dynamic hub of Jewish life in southern Portugal. In 2019, our vision took a major step forward with the establishment of the Ezra & Sasoon Synagogue in Albufeira, giving our community a true spiritual home and a place where tradition and connection flourish.

​

In 2022, we were proud to become the fourth officially recognized Jewish community in Portugal, a milestone that reflects our commitment to building a strong, inclusive, and meaningful Jewish presence in the Algarve.

​

Through prayer, shared meals, and engaging activities, we aim to bring people together, inspire Jewish identity, and create lasting bonds among Jews—locals and visitors alike. Whether you're here for a holiday or a lifetime, you'll find a place to belong.

​

Come be a part of our growing story—rooted in tradition, open to all, and alive with Jewish spirit.
