The Jewish Journey Through Scotland
Hosted By: Qesher
Qesher presents a talk on the history of Scottish Jewry, beginning with Jewish visitors in the late 17th century and the establishment of congregations in the 1800s. The session explores immigration from Poland and Lithuania, community growth through the mid-20th century, and the gradual decline in population since then. It highlights Jewish life in Edinburgh, Glasgow, and smaller towns, including the story of one notable figure whose life ended tragically.
