Before World War II, Poland’s three million Jews represented one of the largest and most influential Jewish communities in the world. The diverse community included Hasidim, secular Jewish intellectuals, Yiddish writers, Zionists, and socialists. Recently, a world-class museum opened in Warsaw, devoted to what Jewish life and culture were like in Poland. Jewish festivals attract thousands of people each year. Additionally, several universities have opened Judaic studies departments where graduate students have published impressive publications, documenting Poland’s astonishingly rich Jewish history and culture.
