Explore Jewish Dublin's Heritage Trail
TY students have launched a Jewish Dublin interactive heritage trail outlining areas in the city which traditionally had close links to the Jewish community. Created as part of the JACI programme there is a video guide and map available to download for anyone interested in tracing the history and the stories behind certain places, from the Jewish businesses which once operated on Clanbrassil St, to the Bretzel Bakery in Portobello.
A great historical walk to do over the holidays!
