Historical walk into the most emblematic Jewish quarter of Paris
View date

Description

The historic Jewish quarter is found in the charming preserved district of the Marais especially around the rue des Rosiers. The walk brings to life the fascinating history of the Jewish population that has lived in France for more than 2000 years. In between persecutions and forced exiles, there have been periods that have consecrated the Jewish community as one of the most important and active in culture, politics, and business. The tour presents places that often go unrecognized, from large synagogues to small hidden oratories, private mansions, typical streets and, of course, places of remembrance, followed by a reflection on the current status of the French Jewish community.
The tour will end at a local restaurant, either falafel, Mediterranean food or Eastern Europe pastry shop for some typical delicacies!
A donation is asked at the Synagogue.
