Destination Ideas
Israel
Celebrate your roots as well as the spirit & accomplishments of the Israeli people. Each day will not only encompass the wealth of Jewish history & culture, but give you the opportunity for personal or hands-on experiences. Participate in an archeological dig on the Temple Mount, share a Shabbat dinner with a local family, or visit a kibbutz to see a different side of Israeli life. You can even meet with local experts or have a service at Masada, the site symbolizing Jewish resistance. We'll create the trip that's right for you.
Spain
Spanish & Jewish heritage shares an important & vital link. In fact, Jewish influence from a variety of different traditions can be seen across the country. Visit Toledo once a hub for Jewish Spain & home to the Sinagoga del Transito, now the Sephardic Museum, a tribute to the ethnic community of Jewish faith in the area. Then, travel through some of Spain's world-renowned cities, like Madrid, Barcelona, & Seville, while learning about their respective Jewish communities & traditions.
Poland
For hundreds of years, the largest Jewish population in the world was found in Poland due to its tolerant & hands-off approach to religious communities. Unfortunately, that meant that it paid one of the greatest tolls during WWII. Pay homage to the many Jewish lives lost at sites like Auschwitz & Lublin. While some of the country's memories are painful, the Jewish community left other important legacies here that should be celebrated. Learn more about the region's rich Jewish history at the Museum of the History of Polish Jews in Warsaw.
France
Home to the largest Jewish community in Europe, France has a variety of Jewish heritage sites to explore. In Paris, visit the Museum of Jewish History & Art as well as the Holocaust Museum. In Avignon, roam the beautiful old Jewish Quarter. Or, head south to the town of Carpentras, home to the oldest active synagogue in France, dating back to 1367.
