The Foundation for the Preservation of Jewish Heritage in Poland (FODZ), with support from World Monuments Fund, developed the Chassidic Route to draw attention to the rich array of Jewish heritage sites in southeast Poland, some of which are the only surviving evidence of local Jewish life. The Route begins with Zamość Synagogue, a significant Renaissance synagogue that has been transformed into a multi-purpose cultural center and serves as the Route’s visitor center. The interactive Chassidic Route experience can be used to plan a trip along the Chassidic Route or explore the route virtually through images, short descriptions, and data visualizations about the changes to the Jewish community over time.
