The Musee d art et d histoire du Judaisme

The Musée d’art et d’histoire du Judaïsme was founded in 1998. Having inherited the collection of the private Jewish museum in rue des Saules, the Musée d’art et d’histoire du Judaïsme also benefited from the allocation of the Hôtel de Saint-Aignan by the City of Paris and of major collections by the Culture Ministry, including the Isaac Strauss Collection formerly in the Musée de Cluny. The museum presents the two thousand-year history of the Jewish communities in France and to situate it in the broader context of the history of Judaism as a whole and disseminates and promotes public and private museum collections and archival collections of the art and history of the Jews and to organise the dissemination and intercommunication of all forms of artistic expression related to Jewish culture in all its diversity.
