The Jews of Ukraine: A Virtual Tour of Kyiv and Odesa

Hosted By: Qesher

This tour invites participants to explore the Jewish heritage of Kyiv and Odesa, two key cities in Ukraine. Kyiv, with a Jewish presence since the 8th century, has been a center for Jewish scholars, rabbis, writers, and leaders, experiencing periods of prosperity and tragedy. Odesa is often referred to as the Jewish capital of the former USSR by Russian-speaking Jews, highlighting its significant cultural and historical importance.

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.
