The depth and breadth of the Jewish experience in Amsterdam and beyond is creatively presented in 3 floors, including the synagogue that became a safe place to learn more of this history. It really helped that the museum wasn’t so busy during our visit on Monday, so we were able to go deeper into the many offerings… it’s set up for an intimate exploration which we were fortunate to have on this day. The live interviews (returning from the camps and present day thoughts on being Jewish), stories, photos and artifacts from this rich complex history are impactful especially after walking around this fascinating city.
We spent five hours here. Learned so much and appreciate all that was put into this interwoven experiential journey. You could come for a lot less time. … it was a lot to assimilate. The ticket is good for a week and includes entrance to the Portugese Synagogue/museum across the street.
