Jewish Museum London

HistoryClosed todayFreeFinchley Road

Jewish Museum London schloss sein Gebäude in Camden im Juli 2023 nach mehreren Jahren finanziellen Drucks und verbrachte die folgende Zeit als „Museum Without Walls“, indem es seine 35.000 Objekte umfassende Sammlung an Partnerinstitutionen in ganz Großbritannien verlieh. Seit Juni 2026 hat es wieder ein öffentliches Zuhause: Two Rooms by Jewish Museum London, einen Übergangsausstellungsraum im obersten Stockwerk von JW3 an der Finchley Road. Room One beherbergt Tree of Life, eine Sammlungspräsentation, die das jüdische Leben in Großbritannien von der Wiederzulassung 1656 bis in die Gegenwart nachzeichnet. Room Two zeigt eine wechselnde Sonderausstellung, derzeit die Geschichte der deutsch-jüdischen Familie hinter J. Lyons. Der Eintritt ist frei, im Raum steht eine Spendenbox. Das Museum verleiht weiterhin Werke, führt sein Bildungsprogramm landesweit fort und arbeitet auf ein neues dauerhaftes Museum bis 2030 hin.
