Jüdisches Museum Frankfurt (Jewish Museum Frankfurt)

The Jewish Museum in Frankfurt enables people to experience both the historical and present-day diversity of Jewish culture. To this end, the museum collects, preserves and researches cultural assets and testimonies of Jewish life in Frankfurt. With its art and cultural history exhibitions, educational programmes and digital offerings, as well as its experimental formats, the Jewish Museum Frankfurt aspires to be a museum covering all forms and aspects of cultural presentation.
Underlying the museum’s work is the conviction that the history of Jews in the diaspora was unique and that Jewish cultures are of central importance to European societies. The Jewish experience of discrimination and violence as well as its struggle for equality under law and social participation is now as current as ever. Against this background, we hope to stimulate intercultural understanding and self-reflection. We see our work as networked action in the digital as well as social space and aim our efforts at ensuring the further existence of open, enlightened and civilised societies in Europe in whose midst Jews want and can continue to live.
