London: Jewish History - Private Walking Tour｜United Kingdom

Discover 1,000 years of Jewish history on a private walking tour of London. Learn about the Jewish experience in Westminster, a place that has dictated the status and freedoms of the Jewish community in British society since the 1100s.

Meet your guide and set off on a journey through time. Hear about the Jewish experience in Westminster, which tells a diverse story of admission, tolerance, persecution, diktat, violence, money, expulsion, readmission, legislation, racism, emancipation, and integration.

Learn about the political history of the Jews in England, which divides into two parts. The Jews of medieval England were expelled in 1290. Modern Anglo-Jewish history starts with readmission in 1656 and much follows, right up until today.

See many buildings where the story happens still stand, very much here in the present, and on your tour route. Spot fragments of Jewish history within buildings, through statues, or on memorials.

Pass by iconic landmarks such as Westminster Abbey, the Houses of Parliament, the Cenotaph, Banqueting House, King Richard I statue, Oliver Cromwell statue, Benjamin Disraeli statue, and the Suffragettes.
