Impression of the week- bricked up magician Print

Jewish world of Lviv… In our city there are many places (in the streets and inside the buildings) where you can shoot a film about the life of Jewish community of the 17th-18th centuries.

The atmosphere of such places does not change since old times (Galician Jews appeared app. in the 14th century). Here they carefully save ancient Jewish traditions. Here they have their own life: cook kasher food, celebrate religious holidays, edit newspapers and books.

You can have a look behind the curtain during yearly festivals organized by  Lviv Regional Jewish Charitable Foundation “Hesed-Arieh”.
