Gifts, donuts and fried treats, the eight-branched menorah with an extra candle above the rest—these symbols of the Jewish festival of Hanukkah are well known, and they provide an opportunity for Jews around the world to come together. That’s why the Loubavitch movement in France hosts, as every year, public menorah lightings across the country, including in Seine-et-Marne. This year, the celebrations will take place from December 14 to 21, 2025, allowing residents of Seine-et-Marne to enjoy a series of public events during this period. These lightings are held in the main squares of the department’s biggest cities, and of course, entry is free and open to all.
