Jewish History London Tour
Explore the streets of the East End of London, one of the city’s most diverse areas, where Jewish refugees fleeing the pogroms in Eastern Europe during the 19th century settled, bringing with them a rich and vibrant culture and heritage.
A London History London Tour is unmissable because…
You will learn stories of Jewish immigrants to London – some of them tragic, many of them uplifting and inspiring – and hear how they shaped this neighbourhood as you wander through the streets and alleyways, many of which are unchanged by time.
A Jewish History London Tour may include a visit to…The former soup kitchen for the Jewish poor
- Bevis Marks synagogue (built in 1701), the oldest synagogue in the United Kingdom
- Spitalfields, known for its vibrant Jewish community in the late 19th and early 20th centuries
- Brick Lane, once home to a thriving Jewish population with Yiddish-speaking residents and numerous Jewish businesses
- The Petticoat Lane Market, where the poetic spiel of the Jewish stallholders was once as much of a tourist attraction as the Crown Jewels at the nearby Tower of London
