Opening and guided tour of the exhibition.
As part of the European Days of Jewish Culture, the Interpretation Center of the Jewish Community presents, during the month of September, the exhibition The Portuguese Jewish Diaspora, organized by Editorial Chandeigne and presented in Portugal by Associação Hagadá | Tikva – Jewish Museum Lisbon.
This exhibition tells, over 20 panels, the story of the Portuguese Jewish diaspora in the Sephardic context, still little known, from its origins – the forced conversion of Portuguese Jews in 1497 – to the contemporary reminiscences of Marrano memories and their places of memory, showing it as a Jewish history, but also Portuguese, European and worldwide.
Persecuted by the Inquisition from 1536 onwards, many New Christians left Portugal, looking for a place to practice Judaism more or less freely, having participated, between the 16th and 18th centuries, in the profound socioeconomic, religious and intellectual changes that brought the western world to modernity.
The exhibition shows that, despite the great geographic and religious dispersion of this diaspora, a certain cohesion was preserved, whose unity factors are expressed through language, literature, liturgy, architecture, patronymics or even funerary art. Although composite, it shares a common destiny that will give rise to a new form of collective belonging, designated by the term «the Nation».

Virtual exhibition “The History of Nożyk Synagogue”

The Professor Moses Schorr Foundation is about to celebrate its 20th anniversary. Our celebration aims to highlight the story of the Ryfka and Zelman Nozyk Synagogue, the sole synagogue in Warsaw that survived the war. We would like to invite you to an exhibition titled “The History of the Nozyk Synagogue.”

Up until now, the early history of the synagogue, starting from its establishment in 1902, has remained largely unexplored. Furthermore, many historians have inaccurately noted the date of Zelman Nozyk’s death, the synagogue’s founder. Over the past two years, we have dedicated our efforts to researching the synagogue’s history, and during Shavuot 2022, we shared some of our findings with members of the Warsaw Jewish Community.

Our objective is to rekindle the memory of the founder, the members, rabbis, cantors, and the diverse range of religious and social activities the synagogue was involved in.

Gekommen, um zu bleiben? Jüdische Migranten aus Osteuropa im Braunschweiger Land

Gekommen, um zu bleiben? Jüdische Migranten aus Osteuropa im Braunschweiger Land

Sie kamen aus Osteuropa in die Region Braunschweig. Hinter ihnen lagen Erfahrungen von Armut, Krieg und staatlicher Neuordnung – von unsicheren Zeiten im Umbruch. Es waren jüdische Einwanderinnen und Einwanderer aus Osteuropa, die in der Zeit um den Ersten Weltkrieg nach einer neuen Heimat suchten und zum Beispiel in Peine eintrafen. Bald stellten sie in den Städten einen großen Teil der jüdischen Bevölkerung. In der Region Braunschweig angekommen, wurden sie immer wieder angefeindet. Ihr rechtlicher Status war ungesichert. Viele von ihnen waren staatenlos. Die Mehrzahl konnte trotz der Umstände ihren Lebensunterhalt bestreiten und bemühte sich um die Schulbildung der Kinder. In den Tageszeitungen wurden kontroverse Debatten über die Migrantinnen und Migranten geführt.
