About This Tour

A private tour for your group only, tracing real Jewish history in Paris — genuine historic sites, synagogues, and Le Marais' real Jewish quarter. This is a private tour for your group only, tracing real Jewish history in Paris. Genuine historic sites and synagogues are covered, centered in Le Marais' historic Jewish quarter.

Paris's Jewish community traces back to the 13th century, when the area now called Le Marais was known as La Juiverie — the Jewry — complete with its own synagogues and cemeteries. That community was largely rebuilt from 1881 onward, as Ashkenazi Jews fleeing persecution across Russia, Romania, and Austria-Hungary settled in and around rue des Rosiers, forming the neighborhood known in Yiddish as the Pletzl. One architectural landmark from that era still stands: the Agoudas Hakehilos Synagogue on rue Pavée, the Marais' only Art Nouveau building, designed by architect Hector Guimard and completed in 1914.

At the start of World War II, roughly 270,000 to 300,000 Jews were living in France. During the German occupation, an estimated 78,000 to 80,000 French Jews — including around 11,000 children — were deported to concentration and extermination camps, most dying at Auschwitz and other sites between 1942 and 1944. The Mémorial de la Shoah, which opened in the Marais in 2005, stands today as both a museum and a place of remembrance, with a wall engraved with the names of the 76,000 Jews deported from France. This tour addresses that history directly and respectfully, alongside the community's longer, living presence in the same streets today.
