Jewish History, POI & Kosher Establishments in Caracas

The Jewish community did not become established in Venezuela until the middle of the 19th century. Since Hugo Chávez took power in 1999, tension has existed between the government and Jewish population, which has seen large numbers emigrating. Currently, some 9,000 Jews live in Venezuela, down from about 15,000 in the 1990s. There are around 9 synagogues in Caracas. There are 2 or 3 kosher restaurants in Caracas and several kosher shops.
