Jewish Romania: Holy Union Synagogue of Tailors Museum, Bucharest
Steve and I kept on going with guide Eduard (romaniajewishtours.com and medievaltours.com) to the Holy Union Synagogue of Tailors, now a Jewish History Museum. This temple managed to survive in its entirety through both World War II and Ceausescu (Romania's last Communist leader) who was intent on destroying anything having to do with religion. Built in 1850 by the Jewish Tailors' Guild of Bucharest, this stunning temple had Moorish, Romanesque and Byzantine elements.
Displays inside included a collection of books, paintings of and by Romanian Jews, and archives of Romanian History.
Come and discover the cultural heritage of Iasi
Come and discover the cultural heritage of Iasi
Let yourself be delighted by a glamorous region of Iasi, whose culture represents an endless cultural heritage of Europe.
☑️ The Vasile Alecsandri National Theater from Iasi takes your breath away through its amazing architecture, ranked by BBC in the top 7 theaters in the world. The curtain, itself spectacular in form, creation of the painter M. Lenz, rises to please the audience with the most diverse dramatic creations.
☑️ Ranked in the top 30 of the world's most magnificent libraries, The Gheorghe Asachi Technical Library from Iasi and The Old Auditorium - a true hidden treasure - are true architectural marvels with the enormous potential to fascinate any visitor.
☑️ Discover the wonder of a 7,000-year-old spirituality by exploring relics of the Cucuteni civilization at The Alexandru Ioan Cuza University’s Museum.
☑️ The underground museum of the Metropolitan Cathedral owns a treasure of Christian knowledge.
The largest religious pilgrimage in Romania, with more than 300,000 pilgrims, takes place each year at Saint Parascheva, whose sacred relics are at The Metropolitan Cathedral, considered to be The Jerusalem of Moldavia.
☑️ The only fully sculpted church in Romania, The Three Holy Hierarchs Monastery, has no equal in the collection of architectural jewelries of Iaşi. Here you can gaze at the white, stone-carved lace, wonderfully sculptured, which successfully combines Caucasian, Byzantine, Gothic and Baroque elements into a perfect composition.
☑️ A rewarded example with Casa Nostra prize for the restoration of a cultural heritage monument, The Golia Monastery constantly calls for introspection and peace.
☑️ The mysteries of the Palace of Culture are endless, many of which are gracefully brought to light in its museums, but most of them silently fascinate the visitor. The wealth and the cultural complexity of the city of Iaşi and of the entire region can be understood through the perspective of the largest Royal Palace in Romania, whose 268 chambers house the essence of Moldavian art, culture and civilization in a monumental edifice.
At nightfall, your heart fills with joy while looking at the Palace, which is the largest architectural lighting project in Eastern Europe.
☑️ The Iasi Synagogue is called Old Synagogue, not without reason. Dating back to 1672, this is the oldest synagogue in Romania.

Jewish Romania: The Brasov Synagogue
While walking through old Brasov, one of the seven walled citadels settled by the Saxons, guide Cristi led us past a synagogue founded in 1901. Closed today, a Saturday (Sabbath), it is open Monday-Friday, 10:00a-1:00p.
Jews were given permission to live in the Saxon section in 1807, a rare privilege since only Saxons were allowed inside the core of this city; Romanians were only allowed enter the inner Citadel at certain times.
The Brasov Jewish community now numbers about 230 since many families left for Israel after World War II.

History of the Jews in Romania
Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written
language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.
Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain
Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through
audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio
while you are sleeping! If you are planning to listen a lot, you could try using
a bone conduction headphone, or a standard speaker instead of an earphone.

SUMMARY
=======
The history of the Jews in Romania concerns the Jews both of Romania and of Romanian origins, from their first mention on what is present-day Romanian territory. Minimal until the 18th century, the size of the Jewish population increased after around 1850, and more especially after the establishment of Greater Romania in the aftermath of World War I. A diverse community, albeit an overwhelmingly urban one, Jews were a target of religious persecution and racism in Romanian society – from the late-19th century debate over the Jewish Question and the Jewish residents' right to citizenship, to the genocide carried out in the lands of Romania as part of the Holocaust. The latter, coupled with successive waves of aliyah, has accounted for a dramatic decrease in the overall size of Romania's present-day Jewish community.
Today, the majority of Romanian Jews live in Israel, while modern-day Romania continues to host a modest Jewish population. In the 2011 census, 3,271 declared to be Jewish.
Jewish communities existed in Romanian territory in the 2nd century AD. During the reign of Peter the Lame (1574–1579) the Jews of Moldavia, mainly traders from Poland who were competing with locals, were taxed and ultimately expelled. The authorities decided in 1650 and 1741 required Jews to wear clothing evidencing their status and ethnicity. The first blood accusation in Moldavia (and, as such, in Romania) was made in 1710, when the Jews of Târgu Neamț were charged with having killed a Christian child for ritual purposes. An anti-Jewish riot occurred in Bucharest in the 1760s.
During the Russo-Turkish War, 1768-1774 the Jews in the Danubian Principalities had to endure great hardships. Massacres and pillages were perpetrated in almost every town and village in the country. During the Greek War of Independence, which signalled the Wallachian uprising of 1821, Jews were victims of pogroms and persecutions. In the 1860s, there was another riot motivated by blood libel accusations.Antisemitism was officially enforced under the premierships of Ion Brătianu. During his first years in office (1875) Brătianu reinforced and applied old discrimination laws, insisting that Jews were not allowed to settle in the countryside (and relocating those that had done so), while declaring many Jewish urban inhabitants to be vagrants and expelling them from the country. The emigration of Romanian Jews on a larger scale commenced soon after 1878. By 1900 there were 250,000 Romanian Jews: 3.3% of the population, 14.6% of the city dwellers, 32% of the Moldavian urban population and 42% of Iași.Between the establishment of the National Legionary State and 1942, 80 anti-Jewish regulations were passed. Starting at the end of October, 1940, the Iron Guard began a massive antisemitic campaign, torturing and beating Jews and looting their shops (see Dorohoi Pogrom), culminating in the failed coup and a pogrom in Bucharest, in which 125 Jews were killed. Antonescu eventually stopped the violence and chaos created by the Iron Guard by brutally suppressing the rebellion, but continued the policy of oppression and massacre of Jews, and, to a lesser extent, of Roma. After Romania entered the war at the start of Operation Barbarossa atrocities against the Jews became common, starting with the Iași pogrom. According to the Wiesel Commission report released by the Romanian government in 2004, Romania murdered, in various forms, between 280,000 and 380,000 Jews in Romania and in the war zone of Bessarabia, Bukovina and in the Transnistria Governorate.
Jewish Romania: The Great Synagogue of Bucharest
Wonderful Guide Eduard (romaniajewishtours.com and medievaltours.com) escorted us through the remnants of Jewish Bucharest and filled heads to bursting. The first stop was to the Great Synagogue of Bucharest which is also a Holocaust Museum, built in 1845-1846.
A Jewish presence in Bucharest was first documented in 1550 and the Jewish community was once the largest minority community in Bucharest.
I'll let Eduard dispense information in this and subsequent videos since he communicated the facts so well. Eduard, who is NOT Jewish, is a perfect example of how important it is for all peoples to visit important religious sites throughout the world. The ex-Marine (husband, Steve) and I are forever lighting candles in Churches, making kora (circumambulating around a Buddhist sacred site), and even a Jain pilgrimage. Have got to cover all eventualities, right?
