Jewish Quarter

During my tour through the Jewish Quarter, I will take you on a journey through time, starting with the arrival of the first Portuguese and Spanish Jews to the neighborhoods around the present-day Waterlooplein. We will walk from the grand synagogues at Mr. Visserplein, through Uilenburg and Rapenburg, into the Plantage, and into the 20th century. I will tell you about the history of Jewish Amsterdam and my own family.
