Jewish Museum London

HistoryClosed todayFreeFinchley Road

Jewish Museum London a fermé son bâtiment de Camden en juillet 2023, après plusieurs années de difficultés financières, et est devenu pendant cette période un « musée sans murs », prêtant sa collection de 35 000 objets à des institutions partenaires à travers tout le Royaume-Uni. Depuis juin 2026, il dispose à nouveau d'un lieu ouvert au public : Two Rooms by Jewish Museum London, un espace d'exposition provisoire situé au dernier étage de JW3 sur Finchley Road. La première salle accueille Tree of Life, une exposition de la collection retraçant la vie juive en Grande-Bretagne depuis la réadmission de 1656 jusqu'à aujourd'hui. La seconde salle présente une exposition temporaire tournante, consacrée actuellement à l'histoire de la famille juive allemande à l'origine de J. Lyons. L'entrée est gratuite, une urne à dons étant mise à disposition sur place. Le musée continue de prêter des œuvres et de mener son programme éducatif à l'échelle nationale, tout en travaillant à l'ouverture d'un nouveau musée permanent à l'horizon 2030.
