Etz Hayyim Synagogue

The Etz Hayyim Synagogue is the only surviving remnant of the once Jewish community on the Greek isle of Crete.

After being restored, the synagogue has become a tourist destination and has attracted visits from foreign dignitaries like Queen Sofía of Spain, the sister of the former King Constantine II of Greece, who made a sudden and unannounced visit to the site on March 6, 2006.

The synagogue was the target of an arson attack January 5, 2010.
