Explore the Jewish Museum Vienna: Exhibitions, History, and Cultural Heritage

The Jewish Museum in Vienna offers an overview of the history and present-day life of Jews in the city, featuring a permanent exhibition titled 'Our City!' and various temporary exhibitions. It provides insights into Jewish heritage from its beginnings to the present day, including a 3D animation of Vienna's destroyed synagogues.

The Jewish Museum, located in Palais Eskeles, presents the history and current life of Jews in Vienna through its permanent exhibition, "Our City!". This exhibition, running since 2013, spans from the present day back to 1945 on the ground floor and covers Jewish history from its origins up to 1938/1945 on the second floor. A notable feature is a 3D animation offering virtual access to Vienna's synagogues destroyed in 1938. The museum also hosts exciting temporary exhibitions and numerous events. The Display Depot showcases collections and their collectors, such as Max Berger, while the Studio serves as a workshop and exhibition space for ritual objects. The Jewish Museum celebrates its 130th anniversary in 2025 with a special program.
