Long Live the Kaiser: Part 1 125th anniversary of Kaiser Wilhelm II’s visit within the gates of Jerusalem
Wilhelm II, the Kaiser of Germany, arrived for a royal visit to Jerusalem in 1898 amid much excitement. Residents of Jerusalem excitedly prepared for his visit by cleaning the streets, constructing exquisite victory arches, and even dismantling a section of the Old City walls next to Jaffa Gate for his entrance. During this two part tour guided by Tamar Hayardeni, we’ll follow the steps taken by the Kaiser during the famous visit that altered Jerusalem’s skyline.
