Jewish Istanbul: Where East Meets West
Istanbul, a city of contrasts and the crossroads of two continents, blends diverse religions and cultures. Once known as ancient Constantinople, it boasts a stunning skyline of minarets and domes. Scattered across its neighborhoods are synagogues with unique stories of the Jews who built and worshiped in them. Join me in exploring the Jewish heritage of this remarkable city and its vibrant Jewish culture.
Nisya Isman Allovi is the Director and Curator of The Quincentennial Foundation Museum of Turkish Jews. Born in Istanbul and graduating in Cultural Heritage and Tourism, she has attended advanced curatorial seminars at AEJM (Association of European Jewish Museums) and in the Federal Republic of Germany.
