Summary:
The Jewish Diaspora in Melbourne.

Hosted by our expert local Jewish guide, take in the delights of the architecture, museums, cafes, and produce stores prominent in Melbourne’s beloved inner southern suburbs, as well as historical sites in places not often associated with Melbourne’s Jewish establishment. Stroll along St Kilda beach and pier and explore the main street of this seaside hotspot, lined with retail stores, restaurants and European cake shops. The mini kugelhopf at Monarch Cakes are an attraction on their own!
