Why do we love it?

This beautifully illustrated book uncovers the hidden history of Jewish country houses - homes of ambition and belonging, often shattered by antisemitism and war. With fascinating case studies from Waddesdon to Brno, it’s a moving portrait of identity and memory. We love how it reimagines a quintessentially European story through a distinctly Jewish lens.
