Jewish Historical Museum tours, things to do and tickets

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.
