Spaţii construite evreieşti. Explorarea unor urme în Moldova secolului al XIX-lea
Jewish Built Venues. Exploring (Jewish) Traces in 19th Century Moldavia

Summary/Abstract: The theme and historiography of Jewish communities in Romania is a topic which has been widely researched, beginning with the 19th century and, up until today, is still an ongoing inquest. Usually depicted by historians, the subject, however, lacks an architectural and urban overview of the phenomenon in terms of analyzing the relationship between Jewish constructed spaces and their developing urban context – the city / the town. These touristically attractive urban sites, although lacking the proportion of former living communities once encompassed, display, in the majority of cases, an ample built heritage (housing, synagogues, shuls, cemeteries etc.) and spatial remains of Jewish living.
