Dutch Jewish Community

The Dutch Jewish Community is a diverse group of Jewish individuals living in the Netherlands, with roots dating back centuries. It includes people practicing various branches of Judaism, such as Orthodox, Conservative, and Reform. Historically, the community faced significant hardships, notably during the Holocaust, which devastated its population. Today, the community maintains religious, cultural, and educational institutions, preserving Jewish traditions and heritage while integrating into Dutch society. It plays a vital role in fostering Jewish identity, promoting tolerance, and interfaith dialogue within the broader Dutch multicultural landscape.
