TOUR OVERVIEW
Walk the full story of Jewish Amsterdam from the 16th century through today.
Hear the stories of the Jewish people who shaped Amsterdam but are sometimes overlooked. The horror of the Holocaust has a gravity, which is one reason why the city’s most famous resident is Anne Frank. However, to only speak of World War II is to erase the Jewish Amsterdammers who made the city vibrant. Our unique small-group walking tour through Amsterdam’s historic Jewish neighborhood showcases stories of true grit, dazzling intelligence, and effective activism throughout history. Learn how Amsterdam came to be known as New Jerusalem, and meet some of the individuals who helped create the city you see today.
