    Guide

    Gabi Raiss

Who were the North Africans? When did they begin to immigrate to Jerusalem and why did they establish the second neighborhood outside of the Old City Walls?

Come, learn about the North African community in Jerusalem. Hear about the Radvash, the head of the Moroccan community in the 19th century and Jerusalem entrepreneur. Visit the neighborhood he founded for the community’s impoverished members, Mahane Israel, and see how this little neighborhood became a beautiful Andalusian garden. Finish with a visit to the art and culture center, HaMiffal, which transformed an abandoned house into a thriving art center.

Meeting Point: corner of Gershon Agron St and Ben Shim’on St
