The Jewish Museum Vienna is divided into two locations - Palais Eskeles in the Dorotheergasse and Misrachi House in the Judenplatz. It celebrates and remembers Jewish history, culture, and community. It also houses details of the 65,000 Austrian Jews who were victims of the Holocaust.
The museum has distinguished itself as an active programme to highlight the contribution of the Jewish community in Austria. Museum Dorotheergasse houses a permanent exhibition displaying Jewish history from the middle ages to post-world war immigration and national development. Israeli artist Maya Zack’s paintings form part of the core art exhibition. The Atelier addressing different aspects of Jewish life is a must-visit. Museum Judenplatz, on the other hand, presents archaeological excavations of the earliest Jewish lives in Vienna, dating back to 1420. There are remains of a medieval synagogue that once stood in Judenplatz, and rough topography of the former Jewish settlement in the area.
