07 Apr 22 STUDENTS LEARN ABOUT JEWISH HISTORY

Posted by at 22:00 in History, Memory

Workshops for students from Poland and Germany were held at the Görlitz Synagogue Cultural Forum on April 4, 6 and 7.

Students from the Bischofswerda High School, Elementary School No. 5, the Emilia Plater High School Complex and the Śniadeckich Brothers High School in Zgorzelec were able to learn about Jewish history and religion, as well as learn more about the life of Jewish communities. An important part of the program was a tour of the newly restored synagogue in Görlitz, which now serves as a cultural forum.

The Polish-German workshop was led by Dr. Gunda Ulbricht of Hatikva in Dresden (Place for Education and Encounters with Jewish History and Culture), Ms. Anett Böttger and Dr. Markus Bauer – both from the Society of Friends of the Görlitz Synagogue.

Mutual communication was possible thanks to the presence of a translator, Ms. Agata Grabczewski.

As part of the workshop, 124 students visited the Görlitz Synagogue Cultural Forum. The organizers received many positive comments from those who participated.

The workshop is part of the INTERREG project “To know and understand. Memory for the sake of the future.” Its implementation is possible thanks to funding from the INTERREG Poland-Saxony cooperation 2014 – 2020.
