Jews of San Nicandro
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Jews of San Nicandro (also called San Nicandro Jews) are a small community of Jews from Sannicandro di Bari, Italy. The community developed as a result of the conversion of many of the town's cobblers, beginning in the 1940s. Today, most of the San Nicandro Jews live in Israel.
