Publié le 30 July 2024

Until 30 August 2024 at the Thessaloniki Jewish Museum

Legend has it that the Golem, the monster created to protect Jews from anti-Semitism, rests in a geniza in Prague. While waiting to find it there, another geniza in Cairo, at the end of the 19th century, uncovered numerous documents, biblical and literary texts as is customary, but also all sorts of historical and artistic documents and objects, recounting the history of many centuries of the Mediterranean basin, all the way to Andalusia. It is this land where the monotheisms meet, and its heritage, that are celebrated in this exhibition.
