The Curators guide you through the new Core Exhibition

The core exhibition is the heart of the Jewish Museum Berlin. In August 2020, the exhibition on Jewish past and present was reopened after a two-year remodelling phase.

In exclusive guided tours, our curators provide you with in-depth insights into the five epochs and eight themed islands.
