The Zalman Shazar Center for Jewish
History's primary goal is to reinvigorate
Jewish historical consciousness by making
the treasures of Jewish history available to the
general public.
The Zalman Shazar Center is Israel's leading
publisher of Jewish history, from monographs
and collected essays to textbooks for highschools
and historical novels for youth.
As the driving force behind a wide range of
educational projects, Study days, courses
and seminars, conventions, prizes and grants,
the Zalman Shazar Center for Jewish History
has a mission: to bring the Jewish past to
life.
During 30 years of fruitful activity, the
Shazar Center has continuously reaffirmed
its commitment to increasing the understanding
and appreciation of Jewish history, and to
preserving its lessons for future generations.
From its new home in Jerusalem's Talpiot neighborhood
in sight of Jerusalem's Old City walls, the
Center is perfectly positioned to delve into
the Jewish past, and to move forward to a
future of ever greater achievements.
This enlarged facility is symbolic of the
Center's ever-expanding activities and brings
renewed energy to the pursuit of the Center's
primary goals.
