SUMMARY:Virtual Walking Tour: Florence\, Italy
DESCRIPTION:The Jewish presence in Florence dates to at least 1437\, when the Florentine Republic called upon a group of resident Jews to restructure their banks to take over the indispensable function of lending money\, thereby saving Christian bankers – and their souls – from the damning sin of usury. On this live virtual tour\, we will walk the streets that date back to Roman times. See the original site of the very first Jewish Temple and the Piazza della Repubblica\, the former location of the now-destroyed ghetto. Finally\, see the crowning glory of the city’s Jewish community: the Grand Synagogue\, hailed as one of the most beautiful in Europe.

SUMMARY:Virtual Walking Tour: Ljubljana\, Slovenia
DESCRIPTION:From a once-thriving medieval community to one of the smallest Jewish communities in Europe today\, with only 150 Jews remaining\, Slovenia’s Jewish community has survived cruel medieval expulsions and the ravages of the wars of the twentieth century\, only to find itself eroding even more during subsequent years of socialist rule. In this live\, virtual tour we visit sites within Ljubljana’s old Jewish Quarter. We will explore Slovenia’s Jewish history\, culture\, and heritage. Our guide will also discuss Jewish life in a Christian society and talk about the city’s notable Jewish residents. On our tour\, our guide will share how some Slovenian Jews survived WWII\, and what happened to the Jewish community during the communist regime in the former Yugoslavia.

SUMMARY:Virtual Walking Tour: The Year of Remembrance of the Heroes of the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising Part 1
DESCRIPTION:The first of two live\, virtual tours of the Warsaw Ghetto will focus on the lives of Jews in the city during the Nazi occupation. The Ghetto\, which was established in 1940\, was approximately 1.3 miles in size and was surrounded by a ten-foot-high wall. It was the largest of the Nazi-established ghettos during World War II\, with a peak estimated population of over 450\,000. Walk along the Ghetto wall and learn about conditions in the ghetto\, and how the Jewish community managed to maintain their vibrant culture and intellectual life despite the extreme poverty\, hunger\, and disease in the Ghetto. We will visit some of the places that have survived the War\, as well as contemporary monuments and commemorations.
