Ark Italian, Walnut, & Oak Our History Over the past eleven years, the European Days of Jewish Culture and Heritage have become an established feature in the Jewish calendar. B’nai B’rith UK Launched in 1996 by B’nai B’rith in Strasbourg, Jewish Heritage Days spread to several other European countries and gathered momentum when, in 2000, a partnership was formed which now comprises B’nai B’rith Europe, the European Council of Jewish Communities and the Spanish Jewry Network. Between 25 and 30 countries participate every year, attracting well over 200,000 visitors throughout Europe. The success of the EDJCH has led to the creation of the European Route of Jewish Heritage, linking notable sites in a Jewish Heritage Trail right across Europe. The Route is included in the Council of Europe’s programme – ‘A Common Heritage’ and has been awarded the status of ‘Major Cultural Route’, one of only 7 such routes. British participation in the EDJCH is organised by B’nai B’rith UK, this year celebrating the 100th anniversary of its presence in Great Britain. BBUK is part of B’nai B’rith International, founded in New York in 1843, today one of the largest Jewish volunteer organisations active in humanitarian, human rights, cultural and charitable work in 58 countries, 27 of which (including the United Kingdom) are affiliated to B’nai B’rith Europe.

  • Synagogues and Jewish Architectural Identity in 1870S Britain
    Fenster, L. Exilic Landscapes: Synagogues and Jewish Architectural Identity in 1870s Britain. ARENA Journal of Architectural Research. 2018; 3(1): 1. DOI: https://doi.org/10.5334/ajar.47 HUMANITIES ESSAY Exilic Landscapes: Synagogues and Jewish Architectural Identity in 1870s Britain Leon Fenster* When Jews in Florence, Italy submitted plans for a new Great Synagogue in 1872, the designs were rejected not on the usual religious or political grounds, but for stylistic reasons. The local municipality had decided that the Jewish community was not building in a ‘Jewish enough’ style, although it was not at all clear what this style ought to be. This debate over how Jews ought to build raged across Europe throughout that decade, and beyond. This essay revisits that particular historical problem, by looking at a sample of five new synagogues that were erected in England during the 1870s and 1880s: St John’s Wood Synagogue (1880–82) in London; Bradford Synagogue (1880–81) in Yorkshire; West London Synagogue (1867–70); Princes Road Synagogue in Liverpool (1872–74); and New West End Synagogue in London (1877–79). Each offered its own different way to think about the appropriate design style for a contemporary Jewish place of worship, and how this coincided, or not, with the rituals of worship and with the requirements of the various congregations involved. The essay concludes by asking what relevance such debates might have today. Keywords: Architecture; Synagogues; Jewish; Style; Eclecticism Introduction When Jews in Florence, Italy submitted plans for a new Great Synagogue in 1872, the designs were rejected not on the usual religious or political grounds, but for stylistic reasons.

    The Synagogue & Community Life, March 2003 Royalty and the Jews The Jewish community in the United Kingdom has always taken Rabbi Chanina’s dictum to pray for the welfare of the ruling powers (Ethics of the Fathers 3:2) very seriously.
