The pavilion at the center of the cemetery was originally the entrance to the section and is symmetrically aligned with the similar one belonging to non-Catholics. It features three arches with polygonal side apses, rounded arches, and pillars with small columns at the corners, adorned with decorative capitals. At the top of the façade are the Tablets of Moses bearing the Commandments, crafted in Rozzato stone.
Currently, it is used for burial ceremonies with prayers led by the rabbi and houses numerous tombs along its side walls.
In 2014, the Sabbadini Eskenazi family sponsored the complete restoration of the pavilion, under the supervision of architect Monteverdi. Artistic direction was entrusted to Diego Penacchio Ardemagni, who was commissioned to design stained-glass windows inspired by, and freely interpreting, the twelve windows representing the Twelve Tribes of Israel created by Marc Chagall for the synagogue at the Hadassah Hospital in Jerusalem. The technique used is the same as Chagall’s: antique-style blown glass, layered, engraved, and painted with enamel fired at high temperatures, crafted by Lambert Studios in Frankfurt. These windows depict flowers, fish, birds, and stars over stylized landscapes.
The building contains a wooden chair covered in bronze with Hebrew inscriptions and decorations, created by sculptor Mario Quadrelli in 1897 and originally from the Pisa shrine.
Among the individuals buried in the pavilion is composer Aldo Finzi (Milan 1897–Turin 1945), known for his operatic works, chamber music, and symphonic music composed during the interwar period.
