Virtual Walking Tour: Lublin, Poland

For centuries, Jewish life was woven into the heart of Lublin, shaping the city’s culture, traditions, and identity. Home to one of Poland’s most significant Jewish communities, Lublin became especially known as a center of Jewish learning, where rabbis, scholars, students, merchants, and families built a vibrant community that influenced Jewish life far beyond the city.

 

On this live-streamed journey, we’ll explore Lublin through the story of its Jewish community, discovering traces of the places where people once lived, learned, prayed, and gathered. We’ll follow this history through generations of Jewish life, the devastating impact of the Holocaust, and the ways Lublin remembers and preserves its Jewish heritage today, connecting the streets of the modern city with the people and stories of its past.
