Judisches Museum der Stadt Wien, Vienna

The Jewish Museum is a component of the Wien complex spread throughout various locations in Vienna. It's a relatively recent establishment, having opened its doors in 1988. However, don't let its youthfulness deceive you, as it offers a wealth of intriguing exhibits.

This location portrays the history and culture of the Jewish community in Austria, with a particular focus on their sociological aspects. It houses historical artifacts dating as far back as the Middle Ages. Noteworthy collections include the Jewish Community of Vienna exhibit, the private collections showcased in the Sussmann display, and the renowned Stern collection of Jewish artifacts and artworks. More recently, the Antisemitica display, belonging to Martin Schlaff, has also become a significant addition to the museum's offerings.

From a historical standpoint, there's a section that features a preserved part of the old street from the historical Jewish sector of the town, dating back to 1421. This section includes the exposed foundations of the old synagogue, occupying an area of approximately 5 square meters. This feature adds an unusual dimension to the museum's otherwise conventional exhibits.
