A battle for better integration is the subject of a special exhibition at the Jewish Museum in Berlin.
Haskala is the name of a Jewish Enlightenment movement.
The exhibition of the same name tells of the struggle of many great thinkers.
Marking the event, Professor Shmuel Feiner's recently published translation of Haskala events from Hebrew will be presented to book editors.
Haskala runs at the Museum from September 22nd near the best hotels in Berlin.
An exhibition entitled Totally Manoli? No Problem! runs alongside this event, about Jewish entrepreneurs in the German cigarette industry.
It tells how brands, Manoli, Problem and Massary, were marketed during the First World War and how they were taken over by the Nazis in the Second World War.
The Jewish Museum was created after the community called for a special place to recognise 300 years of ancestry in the city in 1971.
It eventually opened 20 years later and this month celebrates the first birthday of a special Glass Hall extension.
Architect Daniel Libeskind designed the 500 capacity hall for workshops, concerts and theatre.
Admission to the Jewish Museum is 5 (£4.05) for adults and 2.50 for children with young people under six free.
The Museum will be closed on September 30th, October 1st and 9th and November 15th for religious festivals and an understanding and tolerance ceremony.
