Slovakia: Jewish Heritage Route

I've mentioned the Slovak Jewish Heritage route on several occasions on this blog, most recently in my remarks on Jewish heritage tourism. The brain child of Maros Borsky, the Slovak Jewish Heritage Route is an attempt to unite disparate Jewish sites in Slovakia and the better develop them for effective tourism and appropriate use.

The route is featured in detail in a new article by Ruth Ellen Gruber in Hadassah Magazine.
