Für die Reisegruppe israelischer Student:innen und ihrer zwei Professoren leitete Frau König die Tour durch das jüdische Mainz. Die Tour begeisterte - aufgrund des großen Wissens von Frau König, ihrer authentischen, liebevollen Art, ihrer Motivation und Emotion auf der Tour und der Behutsamkeit, mit der sie auch sensible Themen ansprach. Ganz klare große Empfehlung für jeden, der sich für die jüdische Kultur in einer der drei SchUM-Städte interessiert: Mainz.
