Jewish Amsterdam
Jewish Amsterdam began around 1590. Jews generally lived in the Jewish Quarter of the city. Rembrandt painted some of his masterpieces when he lived there and also painted portraits of his Jewish neighbors. Baruch Spinoza was excommunicated אhere from the Jewish community in 1656. The Portuguese synagogue, built in 1675, is the only one to survive the destruction of World War II. During the war thousands of Jews were deported to concentration camps after they had been gathered into a city square. Anna Frank's family lived in a secret annex for two years hiding from the Nazis. The Jewish Museum of Amsterdam tells the story of the Jewish people and the Amsterdam community.
This film is part of the website The Jewish People Around the World about Jewish communities around the globe today. The site is expected to be launched in May 2011.

Jan 1932 - Jewish Neighborhood in Amsterdam (speed corrected + soundtrack)
Old film of a historically prominent Jewish area (the Jodenbuurt) in Amsterdam, The Netherlands in January 1932. Compiled and slowed down footage to a natural rate. I have utilized the original soundtrack, which is an odd mix of unsynced church, added and source sounds, as well as the 1930s recording 'To Ostatni Szabas' (Our Last Sabbath) sung by Adam Aston. This area did not fare well during WW2 nazi occupation with 95% of the Jewish population killed or having abandoned the area. From the EYE film museum

Jewish Amsterdam
Amsterdam has historically been the center of the Dutch Jewish community, and has had a continuing Jewish community for the last 370 years. Amsterdam is also known under the name Mokum, given to the city by its Jewish inhabitants (Mokum is Yiddish for town, derived from the Hebrew makom, which literally means place).
In the heart of Amsterdam you will find a number of impressive Jewish monuments within less than one square kilometre. In the old Jewish quarter you will find the Jewish Historical Museum, with its fascinating Children's Museum, the imposing Portuguese Synagogue, and the Hollandsche Schouwburg (National Holocaust Memorial), a moving historic monument.
During the Second World War, Jews were rounded up into the Hollandsche Schouwburg before being deported to concentration camps. Thousands of people were held there, awaiting an unknown fate.
The beautiful Portuguese Synagogue, also called the Esnoga, is one of the most important legacies of the vibrant Jewish community in Amsterdam. During the 16th and 17th century, many Jews that faced persecution in Spain and Portugal fled to Amsterdam. The religious tolerance they enjoyed in the Dutch Republic was unheard of in the rest of Europe.
In 1665, the Jewish community decided to build a new synagogue. The new synagogue was to be the biggest in the world. Architects Elias Bouwman and Daniel Stalpaert were commissioned to build the synagogue. They started building in 1671 and in 1675 the Portuguese Synagogue was ready. It had cost the community not less than 186,000 florins. Minor restorations have been made but the synagogue still looks pretty much the same as 340 years ago.
The architecture shows the self-confidence and wealth of the Jewish community in Amsterdam. It was the largest synagogue of its time and one of the biggest buildings of Amsterdam. A model of the Temple of Salomon in Jerusalem inspired the architects. Around the main building, there are various offices and archives, the rabbinate, a mortuary and the Ets Haim (Tree of Life) library that holds valuable collections of Sephardic manuscripts.
