Turkish Jewish Museum welcomes Umberto Eco
Umberto Eco visited Istanbul’s Quincentennial Turkish Jewish Museum during his trip to Istanbul.
Eco met with the founder of the museum, Naim Guleryuz, and Eco’s wife, Renate Ramge, also accompanied them.
Eco was interested in the honor corner, which displays Turkish passports that Turkish diplomats used to rescue Jewish academics from concentration camps in Europe.
