The Portuguese Synagogue, also called the Esnoga, stands at Mr. Visserplein 3 in central Amsterdam, Netherlands. Designed by Elias Bouman in the Baroque style and completed in 1675, it reflects the wealth of the city's Sephardic community during the Dutch Golden Age. It is a Rijksmonument and remains an active Orthodox congregation that has drawn visitors since its construction.
