Jews Special Tour in Moscow is the best option to learn about the entire history of Judaism in Russia and the world. You can not miss it.
Russia has a great and very important relationship with the history of Judaism worldwide, it is not possible to talk about the issue of the Jews without mentioning the role that the Russian empire has had in the development of the events that led to the current situation of the Jews in the world, in the Moscow Special Jews Tour we will discover all the details.
In Russia there was the largest Jewish community in the world in all its history, the Russian empire had a population of more than 5 million Jews. Most of the existence of this large community in the Russian empire, they were living in the ghettos called Chtatel, to this day there are some traces of these ghettos in various areas of the already defragmented Soviet Union.
Most of the Russian Jewish community comes from areas annexed by the Romanov empire in its conquests of Prussia among others.
Before the Bolshevik revolution and afterwards there were migrations to other countries, there was also great migration after the dissolution of the USSR and the relocate of almost all that was left of the Jewish community in Russia to Israel in the early 1990s.
The first synagogue in Moscow, late 19th century, is a work of art and at the same time inspires a deep sense of peace. We start the day seeing this wonder and attending the morning ceremony; with the possibility of putting on the Tefillin.
Bolshaya Bronnaya Synagogue is the second synagogue to be built in Moscow, but the first to host Jews in worship, since for historical reasons the Choral Synagogue did not open when it was finished.
It is currently the largest Synagogue in Moscow and is the cultural and educational center of the Jewish community in Moscow.
