A most appropriate site in the Old City during the “days of awe” between Rosh Hashana and Yom Kippur is the unique
Siebenberg Museum. Years ago the Siebenbergs, while doing construction underneath their home in the Jewish Quarter, uncovered unbelievable artifacts and remains of the Second Temple, and when they dug further "lo & behold" segments of the First Temple were revealed. This shows the continuity of Jewish Life in Jerusalem from 3000 years ago. Come with us on
Sunday, Oct. 5th at 2pm visit and tour this most unusual home with the Siebenbergs as our guides. 30 å per person Advance registration & payment required Meeting place details upon registration Sign up with Naomi at the Travel Desk (02) 560-9110 or 050-725-8392
