Or "traditions and rituals" (I'm not sure the order?), Seen by me today Wolnica Square in Kazimierz, in the very heart of the old Jewish quarter ... The announcer dressed in a robe-like dress noble (?) or perhaps middle-class Krakow (guild?), speaking through a microphone that "what distinguishes us from all over Europe, are precisely the Easter traditions," and in these rites, "definitely leads Malopolska, having such a unique Local Feast pucheroków . "
Of course it is good, so that "strongly" distinguished;)
The square was full of stalls with palm trees, Easter, and I started to wonder how long the tradition of this festival in the same place, because somehow I do not remember previous edition of ... (or are just not noticed?). However, given the pre-war status of Kazimierz, as for example, it describes the characters of interviews made by Ann Pordes in the book "The City", the tradition is quite fresh.
Indeed, in the north-east corner of this square is a Gothic church. Corpus Christi (or otherwise not bad), while the street Bochnia - coming out of the corner of the south-east - we Beit midrash Szejrit Bne Emuna (Hebrew Other Children of the Faith), a little further in the backyard at the Trinitarian house of prayer, and Hana Lednitzerów Abraham, a little farther from the Corpus Christi Beit midrash Hewra T'hilim (Hebrew Brotherhood Psalmowego), etc., etc., etc. "Tradition" ...
And in the main prayer hall of the synagogue Bne Emuna Szejrit , designed by Henry Lamensdorf (also author of the project established the Israelite Religious Community Krakowska Street 41 - which is a western frontage Wolnica Square), in January 1980 ... I had a prom. This building was administered then - I believe - MPK Krakow, and because the father of one of his colleagues was the deputy director of the company, so I rent a room there were no problems. Studniówka as Studniówka, muck, shallowness and total drunkenness, not less, however, the appearance of the room where the event took place, drew my attention to his "Strange" - so then it was picking up, with no idea of \u200b\u200badvance-purpose facility - look. I looked at the completed windows and semicircular asked myself what was actually going on, what's going on here? Well, while working on "Innocent Eye", ie at the stage of collecting information about ancient synagogues, I found a very simple explanation ...
Krakow, Beit ha -Midrash Szejrit Bne Emuna 09/25/2008 (visible in the picture in the bay left, from the year is already a residential building)
