About Us, and How to Join and Help
We are a group of concerned landsmen and landswomen from across the globe, who believe in the importance of preserving the cultural heritage of our common past – for ourselves and, even more so, for future generations.
We endeavour to preserve:
- the physical vestiges, such as the Great Temple and the Cemetery;
- the written word, by means of a Bibliography – a compilation of titles, books, records and various writings that cover and relate to Jewish life in Bukowina over 300 years.
