ShUM Cities - Ashkenazi Jewry







Much of Jewish history is, sadly, the story of shifting centers of learning. As early as 900 CE, the ShUM cities of Schpira, Warmaisa, and Magenza  (collectively used the first letters of their Hebrew names, today known as Speyer | Worms | Mainz) were the three original cities of the Jews of Ashkenaz.




On this tour I will take you to this historically important part of Jewish life in Germany. 
We will visit the intellectually most important cities of Mainz, Worms and Speyer, all located at the Rhein River.
     

We will customize your History tour of the ShUM Cities to your preference. To visit all three cities, allow a full day of about 8 hours to cover most important areas of each city and cemetery.
