My Great Grandfather ( Woolf Friedberg ) married here in 1879 ? (5639 on the Ketouba). We think he…read morecame from Russia via Austria ( Vienna ) and then settled in London and became a naturalised British Citizen. We don't know why he married in Paris as there were many Synagogues in East London. Could the couple have been on their way to London as immigrants ? It is fortunate for all of his descendants that he made the decision to continue his journey. I have the rather battered Ketouba, all in Hebrew . The registration number on the document is either 353 or 1353. Woolf Friedberg's son, my Grandfather , Barnett Friedberg, was born not long after the wedding, in East London. He became a Fleet Street journalist and had seven children. He has many descendants both here in England and in France where I lived for several years and where my brother and his family now live. This is the first time I've looked up the synagogue on the internet. What a beautiful place and how new it must have been when they married !

Built between 1532 and 1633 in an area of Paris that was once the home to the country's largest food market. (Today there's a modern mall across the street.) The original chapel was built in 1213, dedicated to Saint Agnes. It is noted for its immense dimensions, the large organ, and the great wealth of art it holds. Having just visited Notre Dame the day before, I hope Église Saint-Eustache will soon get a restoration. This is an incredible architectural achievement inside and out. And I would love to see it in its original brighter glory.
