About This Tour in Oslo

The history of Jews in Oslo and Norway is brief and distinctive. This tour is also unusual as it covers most of the history on one street. We will begin in front of the location where the first Jewish family settled in Oslo and continue down the city's main street. The street was always bustling with activity, and it's no surprise that Jewish businessmen also opened stores there. Monuments, the Parliament building, and even the city's main church all have some connection to Jewish history. Imagine that even the Royal family has something in common with a Jewish boy from Tunisia. The tour is accompanied by many visual materials and stories from Oslo's Jewish community. A visit to the Jewish Museum (located in the former synagogue building) can be included in the itinerary upon request.
