History "During the Second World War, some 200 Jews were deported from Venice and the Venetian Ghetto in two round-ups, by the Italian fascist authorities in 1943 and the German occupation forces in 1944. After the end of the Holocaust, only eight survivors returned."

200? only 200? is this a typo?

Debate as to first ghetto
The article, Aljama on ghettos in Spain, indicates ghettos beginning in the 13th Century. This sppears to conflict with assertions by tour leaders in the Venice ghetto that the Venice ghetto was the first.Dogru144 (talk) 17:39, 6 January 2010 (UTC)


 * There have been Jewish quarters since time immemorial: there was one in ancient Rome. The point made by the article is that the Venice ghetto was the first to be known by that name and to require all Jews to live there. --62.25.109.203 (talk) 11:39, 4 July 2012 (UTC)

New Edit 05/05/21
Hello Fellow Wikipedians,

I would like to propose an edit to this page. Altogether my edit would be around 200-300 words and would focus on editing the sections of: Culture, Location and Geography, as well as the main introduction. I would be using the source The First Charter of the Jewish Merchants of Venice, 1589 and ''The Jewish Mercantile Settlement of Twelfth and Thirteenth Century Venice: Reality or Conjecture? '' both by Benjamin Ravid. I would like to add information about the importance of the Jewish community in the Italian economy and their population numbers from various cities such as Dalmatia or Guidaica. I also want to add to the section that briefly discusses the two parts of the Venetian Ghetto by adding more information on the differences between the two. Lastly, a large part of Jewish life in the ghetto was the difficulty to leave for any reason so I would like to add information on that in the Culture section. If anyone wants to comment on these changes, please let me know on this Talk Page or on my Talk Page. Thank you. Vanessa1290 (talk) 02:13, 6 May 2021 (UTC)

Wiki Education assignment: Jewish Life from Napoleon to Hitler
— Assignment last updated by Alex94543 (talk) 05:59, 18 May 2023 (UTC)

Hello fellow Wikipedia users! This article has a concise description of the Venetian Ghetto, However, there seems to be a significant lack of information on the years between March 1516, to July 1797. Here is where I intend to add content regarding the population growth within the Ghetto under the introductory section. I will be using The "Venice Ghetto: A Memory Space that Travels" as my source of information. This book credits Chiara Camarda as one of the main editors and was published by the University of Massachusetts Press. Altogether, I will add about 2 to 3 sentences highlighting the Jewish community’s growth in the years 1541 through 1633. If anyone wants to comment on these changes, please let me know on this Talk Page or on my Talk Page.Alex94543 (talk) 14:16, 18 May 2023 (UTC)
