[Cz-L]Toynbee Hall, a Jewish Educational Institution, Erected a Century Ago in Czernowitz

Czernowitzers...

Thanks to Dr. Markus Winkler I've updated my posting "Toynbee Hall, a Jewish Educational Institution, Erected a Century Ago in Czernowitz"

http://hauster.blogspot.de/2013/10/toynbee-hall-jewish-educational.html

by introducing a press review covering the official inauguration of the Czernowitz Toynbee Hall, which took place just A CENTURY AGO TODAY, on 16.11.1913 in Czernowitz.

All of you, who read (Gothic) German, will enjoy the articles out of "Der Jüdische Volksrat", dated 28.11.1913 and "Czernowitzer Allgemeine Zeitung" and "Bukowinaer Post" respectively, both dated 18.11.1913, sharing the mood of the opening ceremony. For all others we have transcribed the main articles, offering to you the opportunity to translate them via GoogleTranslate or straightaway from the Blog.

The "creme de la creme" of the Bukovinian society as well as many guests from Vienna and abroad attended this major event. I'm sure, that one or two will "meet" ancestors and friends at the Toynbee Hall. (Irene, please look for building contractor Brandes; Marion, please look for the deputy mayor and privy councilor Barleon!)

Dr. Markus Winkler refered in his lecture on the Toynbee Hall in Czernowitz to Abraham Kogan's impressive testimony on the Jewish education during the "Ghetto Period"

Enjoy the posting and "stay tuned" for more "bonus material" following my recent motorcycle journey to Bukovina!
