Fabric Synagogue · the former canal: Early 20th century
Fabric Synagogue seen across a former branch of the Bega, not the Cetate Synagogue. The source record mentions both “circa 1900” and a 1909 postcard, so we retain a broader date. The canal and viewpoint have changed; a present-day comparison is illustrative.
