Today, Lyon is the home to 40 000 Jews. The jewish community has always been an important part of city's history and it's story must be told. This tour will take you on a journey more than 15 centuries old. From the Middle Ages to the dark years of the Deportation, from the Renaissance to the emancipation during the French Revolution, I will tell you the story of the Jews in Lyon. We will go the the places where the Jews lived, prayed, gathered and suffered. I have studied the History of the Jews in my country, the History of Zionism, the History of Israël and I am passionate about Jewish culture. Not many guides in Lyon can offer you the same background. Join me on a journey into the soul of the Jewish people.
