On Thursday, September 21, 2023, at the Historikertag in Leipzig, the new joint portal "Jewish History online" was launched.
The portal, which is hosted at the Moses Mendelssohn Center for European-Jewish Studies in Potsdam and is being developed jointly with the Institute for the History of the
German Jews in Hamburg, is intended to be a meta-platform for the simultaneous search in the content of different digital projects. For the first time, the portal makes thematically relevant content from different projects accessible via a common interface. It thus not only enables access to small databases or editions and opens up new perspectives on the on one's own research question, but at the same time it contributes to the greater visibility of the projects involved. The IGdJ's Key Document edition is one of the four projects that have been involved from the beginning. Take a look for yourself:
