Mini Jewish Music Festival
Klezmer music and Jewish heritage in Hanau-La Petite Pierre
2026
About Mini Jewish Music Festival
The Mini Jewish Music Festival celebrates the rich Jewish heritage of the Hanau-La Petite Pierre region, located within the Northern Vosges Regional Nature Park. Every autumn since 2011, the event has featured a series of Klezmer and Yiddish concerts, recitals, and guided tours of synagogues and Jewish cemeteries across the villages of Struth, Ingwiller, Weiterswiller, and Bouxwiller. Organized by the Intercommunal Tourist Office, the festival highlights local landmarks such as the synagogues and the Judeo-Alsatian Museum in Bouxwiller, which stand as testaments to one of the most significant Jewish legacies in the region.
Mini Jewish Music Festival — edition 2026
The 16th edition runs from October 4th to 18th, 2026, across Struth, Ingwiller, Weiterswiller, and Bouxwiller. This five-event series blends klezmer and world music performances with guided tours of local synagogues and the Jewish cemetery in Ingwiller. Kalarash kicks off the festival in Struth, the Strasbourg Klezmer Band performs in Weiterswiller, and the Musée judéo-alsacien in Bouxwiller hosts the closing event, featuring a recital by Michèle Tauber followed by the "Ballade" concert.
