Irish Jewish Museum Dublin
The Irish Jewish Museum is located in a former synagogue building with all its original features.
The display includes memorabilia relating to the Jewish communities in Ireland, depicting their important, though small, place in Ireland’s cultural and historical heritage. The collection includes photographs, paintings, certificates, books, letters and artefacts concerning all aspects of Jewish life.
The display covers 150 years of professional, commercial and artistic activities and includes a gallery with Jewish religious objects.
The original kitchen in the building recreates a typical Sabbath meal setting of the early 1900s. The museum was opened in 1985 by Irish born President Chaim Herzog of Israel.
