The city of Stobi in North Macedonia flourished during the Late Roman Empire, serving as home to a synagogue and at least seven churches. The site has been excavated since the early 20th century, and work is ongoing. Recent discoveries include a temple of the goddess Isis and a massive building tentatively identified as a library.
