THE pARADESI SYNAGOGUE IN kERALA
The Paradesi is the only Jewsih Temple functioning in Kerala and the oldest such place of worship in India. Erected by Samuel Castiel, David Bilila, and Joseph Levi for a congregation, whose core had migrated from Cranganore to the North Kochi it was built in 1568 on the land in Cochin da China, or Upper Cochin, the that the Rajah of Cochin generously allotted. Located next to his own Palace (now a city museum) and an adjacent small Hindu Temple it was damaged by the Portuguese and rebuilt in 1664 when the Dutch took over that geography. The road that it was built on came to be known as Jew Street or Synagogue Lane and the surrounding neighborhood as Jew Town.
