Permanent Exhibition
Our historical permanent exhibition chooses an unusual perspective on the history of Germany and German-speaking territories. Two Millennia of German Jewish History lets the visitor see the Germany of the past and present through the eyes of the Jewish minority. This point of view presents well-known historical events with a new focus and greater complexity alongside the fates of individuals and families.
Special Exhibitions
- In the exhibition "The Whole Truth," the Jewish Museum Berlin presents various questions on the theme of Judaism - the frequent, the uncomfortable, the funny, the clever, and those questions that cannot really be answered (from 22 March to 1 September 2013).
- From 7 May to 15 September 2013, the showcase exhibition "Bambi and the Theory of Relativity" presents books from the collection of George Warburg in the Rafael Roth Learning Center. They are representative of the banned literature that burned on the Nazi pyre 80 years ago.
- The exhibition "Bedřich Fritta: Drawings from the Theresienstadt Ghetto" shows the work of the Czech-Jewish artist and caricaturist produced in the Theresienstadt ghetto between 1942 and 1944. The exhibit focuses on the artistic means by which Fritta comments on and interprets daily life in the ghetto (from 17 May to 25 August 2013).
