EXPLORE, EXPERIENCE, AND ENGAGE:
A JOURNEY THROUGH JEWISH POLAND

JUNE 26—JULY 3, 2022

The world has changed significantly since 2019 and so has Taube Jewish Heritage Tours.

We understand that planning can be difficult right now, but we hope you’ll join us on a Jewish journey in Poland this summer — an experience worth exploring now. Our flagship summer cultural tour will be filled with rare opportunities to discover Poland’s 1,000 year Jewish history and to connect with our Jewish communities today.

We know that a deep dive into Jewish Poland’s past as well as encounters with today’s Jewish community can spark a mixture of emotions: sorrow and joy, loss and hope. Our journey covers a millennium of Polish Jewish life and culture, paying homage to those who perished in the Holocaust, and also celebrating life with Jews from Poland and around the world during Shabbat.

Explore the roots of Ashkenazi tradition and culture:

  • the award-winning POLIN Museum of the History of Polish Jews
  • the hidden archive of the Warsaw Ghetto and its creators – the Oneg Shabbat group
  • a former synagogue with its unique glass bimah in the small town of Chmielnik
  • Kazimierz, in Krakow, one of Europe’s oldest, best-preserved and revitalized Jewish districts

Experience contemporary Poland:

  • the cultural vibrancy of Warsaw and the enduring charm of Krakow
  • the modern twists on traditional Polish-Jewish cuisine in one of Europe’s most innovative culinary hubs
  • the inspiring atmosphere of the Krakow Jewish Culture Festival’s 31st season

Engage in in-depth conversations with:

  • members of the diplomatic corp 
  • three generations of Jewish leaders
  • front-line cultural and social activists
