Secrets of the Jewish South, Charleston & Savannah
Overview
Shalom Y’all! Join us for an unforgettable Jewish heritage journey through Charleston and Savannah, two of the South’s most charming and historic cities. With cobblestone streets, rich stories, and warm Southern hospitality, this limited, intimate group experience offers meaningful learning and genuine connection in a uniquely Southern setting.
Jews arrived here as early as the late 17th century marking these cities with the distinction of being home to two of the oldest Jewish communities in the U.S.
Southern Jewish life has a rich history, which we will see and feel during our visits at a Colonial synagogue and Jewish cemeteries. No trip to the South would be complete without discussing the institution of slavery and the Civil Rights Era, which we will do at different points over this trip.
