Nice's Jewish community has documented roots going back to at least the mid-14th century, with official community status recognized in 1406 under Savoy rule — a synagogue was built shortly after, around 1426. Like many European cities of the period, Nice later confined its Jewish residents to a designated quarter: from 1448, under a papal directive, the community was required to live in a gated street, now known as Rue Benoît Bunico, which was locked each night. Local tradition holds that residents built hidden tunnels and doors connecting buildings in the quarter, allowing Jewish and non-Jewish neighbours to continue moving between each other's homes despite the nightly lockdown — a real, physical trace of daily life in the Old Town that visitors can still walk through today.
The community's most visible landmark today is the Great Synagogue of Nice, built in the neo-Byzantine style by architect Paul Martin and inaugurated in 1886. Its pyramidal stone façade is centred on a large rose window, and the interior holds twelve stained-glass windows depicting biblical scenes.
Nice's Jewish population grew substantially in the 1960s as North African Jewish families settled in the city, at one point reaching an estimated 20,000 residents. The community remains active today, with roughly a dozen synagogues and prayer rooms across the city.
