The Jewish Museum

The Jewish Museum Berlin (Jüdisches Museum Berlin) is one of the largest Jewish Museums in Europe. In three buildings, two of which are new additions specifically built for the museum by architect Daniel Libeskind, two millennia of German-Jewish history are on display in the permanent exhibition as well as in various changing exhibitions. German-Jewish history is documented in the collections, the library and the archive, in the computer terminals at the museum’s Rafael Roth Learning Center, and is reflected in the museum’s program of events.

People are requested to commence the journey through the museum at the lower level which is in fact below ground level. It is this poignancy that adds to the atmosphere whilst reading and looking at family artefacts, about the Holocaust.
