Jewish Kyiv. The Jewish people left one of the deepest traces in the history and culture of Kyiv.

We suggest to walk along the route where Jews of different classes once settled, to see former chapels, the Talmud-Torah, orphanages, mansions, as well as land banks, workshops and other establishments.

You can glimpse at the surroundings from a bird’s-eye view from the observation decks of the Pechersk Lavra bell tower, St. Michael and St. Sophia Cathedrals.
