What's the point

The Forward has an article Italy Celebrates Reopening of 13th-Century Synagogue


I have to wonder why this is being done.  According to the article

Built in the 13th century, the synagogue was confiscated by the Catholic
Church a few decades later during a wave of anti-Semitism* and converted
for use as a church

and

Today, a few dozen Jews live in the Apulia region.

Who is this being done for?  Surely not Jews.


I suppose the hope is that, like the European Day of Jewish Culture, it will draw some tourism.


This, and similar moves (like the Spanish right of return), seem to be a cross between expiation of old guilt, shilling for money (you know get us rich American Jews, who control the world, nostalgic), and necrophilia.


Hey Europe, your Jewery is gone in any meaningful sense, you got rid of us, get over it.
