Who they are
Turkish Jews have a rich cultural heritage dating back to the welcoming of Sephardic communities by the former Ottoman Empire. Characterized by distinct traditions, unique cuisine, and ties that bridge East and West, they now live concentrated in urban centers or in new lands of migration. Their ethnic and community identity remains deeply linked to preserving their ancestral faith and valuing family history.
