Welcome to the The Maimonides Project

Born in Spain, Maimonides became the Chief Rabbi of Egypt and served as the personal physician to the Sultan Saladin. Inspired by this history, a journey was attempted to visit his tomb in the Galilee. However, the trip was interrupted by checkpoints and the events of October 7th. The contrast between the historical harmony intended by the journey and the current reality of division became the catalyst for this project.

The Program Structure

The project convenes an annual multi-day seminar traveling across Córdoba, Seville, and Granada. This immersive itinerary allows participants to study historical coexistence on-site while engaging in sustained, facilitated dialogue throughout the journey.

Historical Immersion

Through guided on-site visits and daily lectures, participants will walk in the footsteps of Maimonides, exploring the cultural and historic landmarks of Córdoba, Seville, and Granada firsthand. The program will give participants a clear understanding of this historical model of coexistence.

Facilitated Dialogue
