Trilingual Wales: former Cardiff Synagogue
Image: © Raymond Bell Taken: 6 Mar 2008
This former synagogue is to be found in Cardiff/Caerdydd on Cathedral Road. As you can maybe see, it's been converted to offices - it's not just churches which suffer this fate. There was once a fairly substantial Jewish population in South Wales, most of which has disappeared due to various factors. The inscription above the door is in Hebrew, the sign outside the door in English, and the parking restrictions in English and Welsh!
