Description

The aim of the Izmir Project is to turn the compound of the ancient Synagogues of İzmir into a Jewish Heritage Museum, which will tell the story of Sephardic Jews expelled from Spain. This future museum will expose the mutual influence of Jewish and Muslim cultures and the inter cultural dialogue between them. The restored complex of Synagogues was confirmed in Izmir city-plan, as the future Jewish Museum of İzmir : the Kiriaty foundation are working closely with the Izmir Municipality and the local Jewish community to realise and promote it.
