Join us for an online exploration of the growth of the city from its beginnings as a small town on a hillside to the modern city it is today with Jerusalem-based tour guide Joel Haber in our four-part series, “Jerusalem: The Holy City’s Development from Antiquity to Today.”
Rechavia was the first real modern neighborhood of Jerusalem, established during the British Mandate era that followed World War I. We will uncover this intellectual and architecturally significant neighborhood, as well as the overall contributions of the British to modernizing Jerusalem. Finally, we will briefly explore how the city continued to develop and grow from the establishment of the state in 1948 through the present day.
