European Heritage Days: visit the synagogue from 9am to 12pm and from 2pm to 6pm on Saturday, followed by the showing of the film "La plus précieuses des marchandises" at 8pm. Synopsis of this animated film, directed by Michel Hazanavicius: "During the Second World War, in a snowy Polish countryside, a modest couple of lumberjacks live in a small wooden house. A freight train passes in front of their property, and every day the woodcutter prays that one of the foodstuffs will be dropped off for them. As she wisely watches the train go by, a piece of merchandise seems to have strayed from one of the wagons. Realizing it's an infant, the woodcutter takes the child in and raises her as her own, in spite of her husband".
