JEWISH MUSEUM AMSTERDAM

The Jewish Museum Amsterdam, comprised of the Jewish Museum & Jewish Museum junior, Portuguese Synagogue, Hollandsche Schouwburg, and National Holocaust Museum, offers an insight into Jewish life in the Netherlands. Situated in the Jewish Cultural Quarter, it is a great place to learn a comprehensive overview of the Netherlands' Jewish religion and culture over the ages through modern art, ceremonial artifacts, movies, and 3D presentations.

The Jewish Museum is the Netherlands' only museum dedicated exclusively to Jewish history, culture, and religion. The museum is situated in a collection of four historic Ashkenazi synagogues - Jewish Museum & Jewish Museum Junior, Hollandsche Schouwburg, National Holocaust Museum, and Portuguese Synagogue - in the heart of Amsterdam's former Jewish Quarter. Within a square km, these four historical sites feature a one-of-a-kind assortment of contemporary artwork, ceremonial materials, and media that vividly depict a rich Jewish history spanning from 1600 to the present. This historical and cultural Jewish museum is a must see destination to explore with our Europe package.

The Jewish Museum's permanent exhibition is centered on the importance of tradition and religion, connections to Israel, the persecution of Jews during World War II, real-life stories, and the shared influences of Jewish and Dutch culture. There are also a number of temporary exhibitions hosted here that are specifically themed on Jewish artists or artwork with Jewish themes. The Museum is a must-see for anybody interested in Jewish heritage, particularly in the Netherlands and Amsterdam.
