How accurate is the popular claim that Polish Jews played a key role in the building of Israel? How did this community develop, during which periods did it arrive to  Israel, and how did it maintain its ties to Polish culture?

Join historian and certified tour guide Jan Kirschenbaum for a walking tour uncovering the Polish stories hidden along Tel Aviv’s Allenby Street!

During the tour we will visit sites that once housed, among others, the legendary Neustein bookstore, the Polish–Palestinian Chamber of Commerce, and the Tel Aviv branch of PKO – the Polish National Bank.

The tour, held in Hebrew, will begin and end at 3 Rothschild Blvd., Tel Aviv. Afterward, we will raise a glass and enjoy festive Hanukkah refreshments at the Polish Institute.

The activity lasts about three hours, including approximately two hours of walking. Participation is free of charge, but advance registration is required. Places are limited!
