Take a Tour of the Gwoździec Synagogue
This virtual tour of the Gwoździec Synagogue is flying your through the painted ceiling of the prayer hall, as recreated by Handshouse Studio for the Gwoździec Re!construction permanent exhibition at the Polin Museum for the History of Polish Jews in Warsaw, Poland. This virtual tour is built of a digital composite made by Trillium Studios of photographs taken by Cary Wolinksy of the Handshouse Gwoździec reconstruction. This 3-D video rendering, made by Crazybride Studio, demonstrates the texture and quality of what the interactive virtual space we are hoping to creating can be.
“I’ve heard people be moved to tears to see this in Warsaw. To see it there, alive. Suddenly not abstract and universal but specific and specifically Jewish...What a fitting way to remember them. How they lived. Not just how they died.”
— Ben Judeh, The Jewish Chronicle, January 26, 2023
