The Torah is the Holy Scripture of Judaism. From an early age, children all over the world learn the Hebrew script in order to be able to read the Torah. Visitors learn more about the meaning of the Holy Scripture for Jews today and its interpretation. A sounding map of the world brings to life Jewish languages that have developed in the Diaspora.
In the installation Why Follow the Law, Jews talk about their personal approach to religious commandments. Objects and everyday objects tell of Jewish life practices such as the Jewish dietary laws (Kashrut) or the commandment of charity (Zedaka). A flamenco dress, a sewing cushion and a crown provide insights into the diversity within Judaism.
Number of participants max. 15 persons
