Visite guidate con racconto della storia della Giudecca e della presenza della comunità ebraica a Nicotera.
As part of this year’s European Days of Jewish Culture, the City of Munich is hosting a reading and discussion centered on the book „Juden auf dem Platz, Juden auf den Rängen: Jüdische Lebenswirklichkeiten und Antisemitismus im Fußball heute“ (Jews on the Pitch, Jews in the Stands: Jewish Experiences and Antisemitism in Football Today) by Ruben Gerczikow and Monty Ott.
Jewish people are an active part of German society, including within the world of football – both in the stands and on the pitch. In the wake of the massacre on Israeli civilians by the Islamist terrorist organization Hamas on October 7, 2023, football revealed both its darkest aspects and its capacity for solidarity. Stories such as those of the murdered Israeli hostages Hersh Goldberg-Polin and Inbar "Pink" Heyman have deeply affected many fan communities across German football.

"Love That Takes Root"
The motto of the European Days of Jewish Culture 2026 – "Love" – inspires us to look at the history of the Częstochowa Jewish community from a different perspective: not through the lens of tragedy, but of life. We want to tell the story of people who loved their families, their city, their culture, and their traditions. People who, over generations, helped build Częstochowa, leaving behind a heritage that continues to enrich us today.
For centuries, Częstochowa was a meeting point for diverse cultures and religions. The Jewish community played a significant role in the city's development, contributing to its economic, social, and cultural life. Today, the memory of this heritage is preserved through the work of The World Society of Częstochowa Jews, which was led for many years by Zygmunt Rolat, an Honorary Citizen of Częstochowa.
Silver House of Love – A Digital Journey Through Jewish Wedding Traditions is an innovative educational and cultural project that combines Jewish heritage with contemporary digital technologies. The project explores the rich traditions, symbolism, and material culture associated with Jewish wedding ceremonies, making them accessible to diverse audiences through immersive and interactive digital experiences.
At the heart of the project is the digitization of a unique Jewish wedding ring from the collection of the Irena and Mieczysław Mazaraki Museum in Chrzanów. Due to its small size and intricate structure, the object has never before been digitally documented. Using advanced blue-light laser scanning technology, the project will create a highly detailed 3D model that preserves every aspect of the artifact and allows it to be explored online by visitors around the world.
Our proposed event is part of Cable Street 90: A Major New Festival of Heritage, Art, Music and Performance Marking 90 Years Since the Battle of Cable Street.
The Battle of Cable Street took place on 4 October 1936, when tens of thousands of East End residents – including Jewish, Irish and other local communities – prevented Sir Oswald Mosley's British Union of Fascists from marching through the area. Cable Street is often remembered as a single day in history, but its legacy continues to inspire artists because it speaks to universal questions about love, community, identity and collective action.
We plan to hold a walking tour to mark 90 years since the Battle of Cable Street. This event will celebrate the European Days of Culture theme of love.
We invite interested people to join us on a guided tour through one of the largest jewish cemeteries of Burgenland, Austria.
We start with a 30 minute recitation in the town hall.
Afterwards we go to the cemetery, where Mr. Mag. Johannes Reiss will hold a 90 minute presentation on several remarkable places of the cemetery.
