Argentine Jewish Community

The Argentine Jewish Community is the largest in Latin America, primarily composed of descendants of immigrants from Eastern Europe and the Middle East. Centered in Buenos Aires, it has a rich cultural, religious, and social life, including synagogues, schools, and organizations. The community has contributed significantly to Argentina’s arts, politics, and business, but has also faced challenges like periods of anti-Semitism and political instability. Overall, it plays a vital role in Argentina’s cultural diversity and history, maintaining Jewish traditions while integrating into Argentine society.
