Halachic note
Venice follows the local custom of lighting candles 18 minutes before sunset. The Shabbat-end time shown uses tzeit hakochavim (8.5°). A 72-minute alternative is also shown for those who follow that opinion.
The Jewish community of Venice, one of Europe's oldest, is centered in the historic Cannaregio sestiere, home to the world's first ghetto. Visitors observing Shabbat can find kosher dining, active historic synagogues, and unique local customs in this well-preserved neighborhood.
