Jewish immigrants in a factory canteen, Palestine circa 1934
Men and women sit at long tables in a factory canteen, eating together and breaking into song. After the Nazi seizure of power in 1933, tens of thousands of German Jews fled to Palestine as part of the so-called Fifth Aliyah, bringing capital, professional skills and entrepreneurial know-how that helped drive the build-up of industry in the British Mandate. Canteens like this one belonged to factory complexes often founded by German immigrants, offering the displaced not only work but also a fragment of familiar community.
