Description: Relief of the Ten Commandments on "Ieşua Tova" ("Yeshua Tova") Synagogue near Piaţa Amzei, Bucharest, Romania, the oldest surviving synagogue in Bucharest according to Dpotop. Further information, copied from en:Wikipedia talk:Romanian Wikipedians' notice board: According to this source, the Iesua Tova Synagogue was built in 1827, and is located on Take Ionescu Street. (The 4 other synagogues listed there are all newer.) According to this source, the actual spelling is "Ieşua Tova", which makes more sense to me; an alternate name is "Sinagoga Podul Mogoşoaiei". Also, the address is listed as 9, Take Ionescu Street.

Turgidson 02:58, 25 June 2007 (UTC) Further note: Podul Mogoşoaiei is the old name of Calea Victoriei. - Jmabel | talk 05:48, 25 June 2007 (UTC)
