Jüdisches Museum

Frankfurt am Main


Frankfurt's Jüdisches Museum (Jewish Museum) is set in the one-time residence of the Rothschild family, the Rothschildpalais. It's closed for renovations until 2019. When it reopens, it will pick up from the Museum Judengasse, which covers Jewish history until 1800, with displays on the period from 1800 to the present day.
