November is the dedicated Holocaust Education Month which aims to promote the legacy and lessons of the Holocaust.
There are many events happening virtually across Canada throughout the month.
In honor of Holocaust Education Month, the German Embassy invites you to explore Germany's rich Jewish heritage through virtual tours of Berlin, Frankfurt and Hamburg.
Berlin
Explore Berlin's extensive Jewish history with the knowledgeable guidance of Martin Lange. From the pioneering Moses Mendelssohn School to the ordination of the first female Rabbi, this tour unravels centuries of Jewish influence integral to the city's development.
Frankfurt
Jo Ator invites you to a live virtual walk through Frankfurt's Jewish heritage, visiting pivotal sites like the Book Burning Memorial, Stumbling Stones, and the Jewish Holocaust Memorial Wall. Each location carries a poignant story, reminding us of the lives tragically lost during the Holocaust and the city's rich centuries old Jewish history.
Hamburg
Embark on a solemn journey with Sarah Janning-Picker through Hamburg's Jewish past, from the vibrant echoes of Grindelviertel to the somber history of the 1933-1945 era. Discover the resilience and legacy of the Jewish community, enduring through time and adversity.
