Jewish heritage tour in Brussels
Description
Private guided tour of Jewish Brussels
Jewish people have lived in Brussels for many centuries, and they have played a significant part in the growth of the city. Even though Brussels owes a great deal to its Jewish population and has long coexisted with it, they have not always been more tolerant of them. You will see what the Jewish community went through throughout the guided tour of Jewish Brussels, which includes the Middle Ages, numerous Golden Age eras, and dramatic eras.
You can learn about Jewish history, religion, and culture on our guided tour of the city’s streets. The city’s many inconspicuous features provide witness to the significance and commitment of the Jews to Brussels.
As part of our guided tour of Jewish Brussels, you will get the opportunity to see St. Michael’s Church, Gudule, the Jewish stairway, memorial plaques and many other sites.
Brussels can reveal a lot about the reality of Jews’ day-to-day experiences since their arrival in the region. It is up to you to listen and open your eyes to see what it has to teach you.
We offer a specialized tour of Jewish Brussels, and It is up to you to communicate your needs and requests for the information you seek because we must validate a number of offered points and interests.
