'Sarajevo Haggadah' Proceeds to Be Donated to Palestinian Causes, Announces Bosnian Museum
SARAJEVO, BOSNIA AND HERZEGOVINA, AUG 4 – The National Museum of Bosnia and Herzegovina cited human rights concerns in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and pledged all proceeds from the Sarajevo Haggadah exhibit to Palestinian aid efforts.
- On August 1, 2025, the museum in Sarajevo responsible for the Sarajevo Haggadah revealed that all funds generated from both the book sales about the manuscript and the admission tickets for viewing it will be allocated to support aid efforts in Palestine.
- The museum made this decision amid its stance accusing Israel of systematic terror, genocide, and targeting civilians in Palestine, citing recent conflict and cultural erasure.
- The Sarajevo Haggadah, a 14th-century illuminated Jewish manuscript preserved through centuries including wartime hiding in the 1990s siege of Sarajevo, is central to the museum's collection and symbolic legacy.
- Jewish organizations and leaders, including the American Jewish Committee and B'nai B'rith, strongly condemned the museum’s politicization of the artifact, stating it tarnishes the Haggadah's legacy and disrespects Jewish history.
- The announcement intensified existing tensions in Bosnia’s political landscape, highlighted by the museum's public rebuttal of politician Milorad Dodik's criticism, reflecting ongoing ethnic and political divisions in the country.
