There was a Jewish community in Oria from the Roman era to 1541, when all Jews were expelled from Southern Italy. Oria is one of the 400 towns and cities with documented Jewish communities in Apulia. The past Jewish presence is mainly recorded in place names, festivities and customs. Oria still has the Porta degli Ebrei (‘Gate of the Jews’), with a large bronze menorah placed nearby, and a quarter known as the Giudecca whose banner is a menorah against a white and blue background.
