Overview

Stunning synagogues, striking buildings and impressive memorials grace the streets of Amsterdams old Jewish quarter. In the heart of the neighborhood, an area of less than one square kilometer, is the Jewish Cultural Quarter, which includes the Jewish Museum, the engaging Jewish Museum junior and the stately Portuguese Synagogue. Here visitors can find out all about Jewish culture, history and traditions, all with just one ticket.

The Jewish Museum, housed in four monumental synagogues, offers a unique look at Jewish life in the Netherlands past and present in all its complexity.
The Jewish Museum junior is set up as a Jewish family home with six rooms, where children aged 6 to 12 can play games that will teach them about Jewish culture sometimes seriously and sometimes with humour. Children can bake rolls in the kosher kitchen, learn Hebrew in the study or make music together in the music room.

Lots of historical information about Jewish history and also items of use within the Jewish religious traditions. Really good little video clips of real people telling their story. Free entry into the Portuguese synagogue too which was also interesting to see.

It's important to remember when you visit museums that the Jewish people in Amsterdam are more than the Holocaust. This is not a Holocaust museum, but rather a vibrant look into continued Jewish life in Amsterdam. It was especially interesting to visit the synagogue and learn about Jewish life, laws, and the parts of a Jewish service. There was an especially moving exhibit where modern day Dutch Jews spoke about the Holocaust and what Jewish life means to them in relation to the Holocaust and generational trauma. We used I AMSTERDAM card Walk across the street to the Portuguese Synagogue included in the ticket price. No food small gift shop nice bathrooms lockers to store bags elevators - handicap accessible audio guide
