Jewish Istanbul: Where East Meets West

Hosted By: Qesher

Istanbul, a city of captivating contrasts, intertwines diverse religions and cultures, serving as the junction between two continents. A modern-day embodiment of ancient Constantinople, it presents a breathtaking panorama of towering minarets and domes surrounded by water, bathed in a golden glow by the sun. Within its many neighborhoods lie numerous synagogues, each with its unique narrative, telling tales of the Jews who built them and worshipped within. Join Nisya Isman Allovi in an exploration of the Jewish heritage sites of this amazing city.

Host

Qesher

There are Jewish communities all around the globe with their own unique history, culture, places, and most of all, people and stories. All of them different, but sharing so much. The aim of Qesher is to connect these different Jewish traditions, not just to know of each other, but to learn about each other. We believe that there is great value in creating a deeper understanding within the Jewish world and exploring Jewish experiences and identities in all their diversity.
