On this tour of the exhibition, you will experience true museum highlights with us – immerse yourself in the heart of our museum collection, the family estates, go on an acoustic search for traces, decipher medieval documents, and delve deeper into 21st century media. You will follow turbulent Jewish history between exclusion and belonging and learn how Jews see their Jewish identity today.
