Queerness in Judaism

Neue Synagoge Berlin

Neue Synagoge Berlin

Using examples from religious texts and modern conflicts within Jewish groups, we will look at the history of queerness in Judaism, among other things. We will also look at the lives of queer Jews such as the resistance fighter Herbert Budzidzslawski and the social worker Hannah Karminski. Both lived, loved and fought very close to our house.

The tour goes through the New Synagogue Berlin and the surrounding area in the Spandauer Vorstadt, where it is not only about the traditional role of women in Judaism, but also about Jewish women like Regina Jonas. As the first female rabbi in world history, Regina Jonas not only fought for new scope for action, but also broke down existing boundaries.
