Roma Judaica with Sonia Schlossman offers you the
opportunity to enjoy unique tours to Rome, guided walks in Jewish
Rome and lectures about Jewish history and the origin of Christianity
within Judaism.
Jewish Rome is Jewish history. It is also a story for Christians
and others with a general interest in history, who wants to
know more about Christianity’s origin in Judaism and the
encounter between Judaism and Christianity. Nowhere in Europe
is this encounter as evident as it is in Rome. Rome is the place
where the Temple treasures from Jerusalem were brought when
Judea was suppressed in 70 AD. In Rome stands the Arch of Titus
commemorating the Roman triumph and the Jewish Diaspora, here
Christianity grew and developed over the years, here the Jews
were oppressed by the Popes and the Church but also protected
by them. In Rome Jewish history and Jewish destiny have been
shaped for centuries.
