Jews of Denmark: A Virtual Tour of Jewish Copenhagen

Join us in this interactive session to explore the history and present situation of the Jews of Denmark.

This conversation explores the history of Jewish Copenhagen: the triumphs, sorrows, and legacies of those who have long called Denmark home. We'll explore important locations throughout the city, such as the Great Synagogue. We'll discuss World War ll and understand how 95% of the community were saved from the Holocaust. We'll learn about Jewish life in Copenhagen today, the issue of antisemitism, and the terror attack on a synagogue in 2015. This presentation will deepen participants' understanding of Jewish Copenhagen, its history, its struggles, and insight into what it was and what it is to be Jewish in Denmark.
