Thank you for putting this together, loved it. even though I've not been to Cork in close to 30 years, I have fond memories of my Grans house in Jewtown and I remember walking past the shul with her as a young child. great video !
Very interesting, thank you so much for sharing. My family in Cork had often talked about the historic Jewish community and still call that area 'Jewtown', and I've long wanted to learn more about the history there, very interesting.
Thanks Oisín. If your family have any stories they would like to share, I'd love to hear. They can contact me through the website www.rutilachs.ie. Glad you enjoyed it.
Thanks Dan. I'm still researching, do let me know if you want to be on the mailing list for further productions, you can contact me at www.rutilachs.ie
This is very interesting. Thank you for sharing. I have very fond memories of a kindly Jewish man called Harry Hayman calling to our home when I was a child living in the countryside. He sold clothes, shoes, bedclothes etc. from his wine colored Anglia car. He always had a cup of tea at our home every week and my grandmother enjoyed chatting to him. His sister, Mrs. Rosenberg sold ladies clothes from a shop in the city. He had a brother and possibly a second sister. Such lovely memories. Thank you again.
That is an amazing story. If you have any more memories of the Jewish community I'd love to chat to you. Please contact me through the website www.rutilachs.ie. Thanks for your input.
I knew there was a Jewish community in Cork, and had seen the former synagogue when it was still operating, but I didn't know any more than that. Thanks so much for these glimpses into the history and present day community.
Very interesting. Thank you for illuminating us on Cork's Jewish history.

Hi Jacqueline, please do get in touch, on rutilachs@gmail.com. Filis would love to hear from you.
Very enjoyable and interesting history of many places that I’m quite familiar with. I’m curious what the reason for the synagogue closure was in 2016?
There were not many Jewish people leiving in Cork any more. People left for bigger communities and opportunities.
That's very interesting, how do i get involved with the munster Jewish Community?
Hi Paul, thanks for your interest, I'll pm you.
Oy vey
Well done Ruti
