Jewish Disciples of Jesus Walking Tours
(BST, UTC+01) (BST, UTC+01)
Join us for a walk through Central London and the Jewish East End mapping the history of Jewish followers of Jesus from 1232 to the present day. We follow the route from the first Domus Conversorum (“Home of Converts”) established by King Henry III, to where the Beni Abraham (Sons of Abraham) met in 1813 in Spitalfields. We walk up Brick Lane, the heart of the historic Jewish East End. We visit the site of Palestine Place in Bethnal Green where hundreds of Jewish disciples of Jesus lived, worked and worshipped. We pass by Synagogues, Hebrew Christian institutions and famous Jewish landmarks, catching the flavour of the bustling East End of today. This tour is an ideal way to learn about the history of the Jewish people, Jewish-Christian relations and Jewish disciples of Jesus.
