Cultural walk

Interested in an educational and cultural walk through the Jewish quarter? Since 2012, we have become a well-known name in the Netherlands, Belgium, and far beyond. Hundreds of schools, companies, associations, travel organizations, and day-trippers have already joined the Jewish Antwerp Tour. This inspiring experience is a perfect way to treat yourself, friends, family, colleagues, students, or your church community to a fascinating excursion!

Jewish Antwerp tour

We’re happy to share all the ins and outs of our neighborhood. The tour is co-organized by Jews living in Antwerp, offering you a genuine behind-the-scenes experience, including a synagogue visit where you'll see, among other things, the library and the sukkah (booth for the Feast of Tabernacles). During the visit, you're welcome to learn about our faith, culture, and biblical festivals.

Afterwards, enjoy warm hospitality and delicious dishes at a kosher restaurant.
