Sephardic and Ashkenazi: Stories from Jewish Sarajevo and Bosnia
Hosted By: Qesher
Qesher presents a virtual journey through Sarajevo and Bosnia, whose rich Jewish heritage earned Sarajevo the nickname “Little Jerusalem.” The session explores key moments and figures from Bosnia’s Sephardic and Ashkenazi past, including the survival of the Sarajevo Haggadah, acts of rescue during the Holocaust, and Sigmund Freud’s interest in the region. Participants will also visit Mostar and the pilgrimage site of Rabbi Moshe Danon, one of the most important Jewish landmarks in Bosnia.
