Branding symbol of the city of Tel Aviv - a city without a break
In our streets The stories of the women behind the names of the streets in the city
Symbol "In full exclusion 2022" - Women’s Week in Tel Aviv - Jaffa
Bethsabée de Rothschild England 1914 - Israel 1999
[Painting of Bethsabée de Rothschild - Efrat Hasson de Botton]
Philanthropist, one of the greatest dance supporters in Israel, winner of the Israel Prize for her special contribution to society and the state
Her aristocratic title, Baroness, implies her family: she is a member of the Rothschild family, a dynasty of Jewish bankers who were the richest family in Europe in the 19th century
During World War II she enlisted in the French army and took part in the liberation of Paris from the German army.
After the war she began to study dance and has not stopped since. In 1962 she immigrated to Israel and formed the Batsheva and Bat Dor dance troupes and a dance school.
Our streets have a special charm.
They reflect history and a culture of values and heritage.
As part of the week "in full exclusion" we will ascend to the miracle of inspiring women who have gained recognition and appreciation by naming a street after their name.
Today, not many streets in the city are named after women, and the municipality is working to rectify the situation
