ABSTRACT
The concluding chapter summarises the idiosyncrasies of neighbourhoods inhabited by Jews, taking into account the complexity of this group and the diachronic framework. The perception of Jewish neighbourhoods by native and gentile observers differed; observers of other backgrounds often understood their specificity as unordered or chaotic. An essential feature was a dense network of internal connections that reflected social connectivity. Environment elements, such as built structures and open spaces, conveyed the semiological system and meanings. The forms of streets affected the proxemic parameters and resonated with a sense of culture-related interpersonal distances. This part is followed by a summary of analyses of the geometry of enclosures. The ways how places got transformed after Jews settled there conclude this section. The final remarks highlight the impact of everyday life patterns on the forms of the urban fabric. The durable traces Jews left on the material heritage persist and should be further studied and apprehended.
