There was a time when one third of Warsaw's inhabitants considered themselves Jewish. A time when Warsaw was home to the biggest Jewish population in Europe.
World War II brought all of that to a devastating end.
Take a journey down the almost 1000-year-old Jewish history of Poland and Warsaw, from their arrival, their expansion, their tragic and heroic struggle, and their remerging, quiet renaissance.
