What is the oldest Haggadah at the National Library? How was the famous Rothschild Haggadah rediscovered after disappearing during WWII?

Which Haggadah was shelved shortly after being published and why? How were the wanderings of the Israelites in the desert displayed on ancient maps? And what is the connection between a 17th-century Christian preacher and the famous Amsterdam Haggadah?

Come see the largest collection of Passover Haggadot in the world and trace the wanderings of the People of Israel in the desert at the Eran Laor Cartographic Collection at the National Library!
