Jewish objects from Switzerland from antiquity to the present reflect the history of the Jews and how they live.
50 objects, beautifully photographed, stemming from religious, economic and artistic contexts and everyday life with accompanying texts, tell a diverse story about the Jews and their history, especially in Switzerland.
The result is a beautifully designed book, which also serves well as a gift book. The book is written in German and English.
