Discover Lincoln's exceptional Jewish heritage on a trail through the city taking in its many surviving Medieval Jewish houses led by Lincoln's leading Jewish heritage expert. We are now offering 4 tours this year to reflect interest in this 'hidden history'.Lincoln is home to three of the five surviving Medieval Jewish houses in England (the other two being in Norwich and Bury St Edmunds), evidence of the prominent Jewish community in Lincoln during the 12th and 13th century.
A Jewish community exists today, the third in the city after the Medieval community and record of Jews living and working in Lincoln during the 18th century.
The legacy of the population, wealth, and scholarship of the Jews in Lincoln throughout history can still be seen today.
