On June 16, 2025, the Lutherschule Hannover, together with its Turkish partner school, the Alkev Gymnasium in Istanbul, visited Villa Seligmann. The goal of the exchange program is to break down stereotypes and prejudices. In this context, students from both schools shared their experiences. For example, the students spoke about their complex identities. Languages, countries of origin, and the concept of home served as a bridge to learning about the diversity of Jewish life around the world. <\/span><\/p>\n
