July 2003
It's summer time and travel time. Hopefully Israel will be on your itinerary. If so, then definitely visit this new well laid out site Jewish Quarter Jerusalem. In addition to being a good guide of what to see, there is an art gallery and a history section.

Every once in a while we find an individual who has made a real contribution to the Jewish Web, David Dickerson and his informative site-Images of Polish Synagogues has done just that. Aside from many good links with detailed explanation on various subjects, he has succeeded in portraying a picture of a number of synagogues along with explanations and historical facts. We hope he will continue to expand his site.
Should your travels take you to Europe, you may want to first check out the Association of European Jewish Museums on the web. This site lists over 20 countries that have Jewish museums. Included in each listing is the museum's address, telephone number, email, and website.
