Orthodox Jewish Community Holds Kosher Fest

BERLIN, GERMANY - MARCH 15: A child wearing a yarmulke plays with legos during the Mega Challah Bake at the local Chabad community's Kosher Festival (Koscher-Fest) on March 15, 2015 in Berlin, Germany. After a hostage crisis in a Jewish supermarket in Paris and a shooting at a synagogue in Copenhagen, the head of the Jewish council in Germany said that while Jews in Germany usually feel safe, an increase in frequency of evaulation of security measures in the country needs to be considered. His comments came in the wake of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu calling for a 'massive immigration' of European Jews to go 'home' to Israel. In response to controversy stemming from the incidents, the Chabad community of Berlin invited the public to participate in kosher cooking workshops and an opportunity to taste products such as traditional challah bread in order to experience something more of the religion's cultural aspects, in a country where many people's exposure to them is limited to associations with negative headlines and the historical weight of the Holocaust.
