Itinerary

In this tour, you'll join our guide as they livestream at the oldest congregation of Argentina: the CIRA. Together, you'll set off to explore the Jewish Museum and the iconic Libertad Synagogue.

During our virtual tour, you'll learn the history of the Jewish people in Argentina, from its colonial times to modernity. As we navigate the history, traditions and landmarks of a 300,000+ community, you'll get to discuss Jewish Argentine identity... Yiddish tangos included!

We’ll go beyond tradition as we explore how politics and the broad history of Argentina shaped and made its Jewish population into what it is today.
