About About the place

Moshav Nevatim's Cochin Cultural Center offers a unique glimpse into the history and traditions of the Cochin Jews, who migrated from Kerala, India to Israel. The center features a museum with ethnographic displays, a film detailing their journey, and a replica of their original synagogue, complete with Torah scrolls brought from Cochin. It showcases how this community maintained its Jewish identity while adapting to local Indian culture, and subsequently, to Israeli society. The center aims to preserve and share the rich cultural heritage of this small but significant group.
