Incredibly well curated, carefully archived and researched. The exhibitions about the past, culture and all the aspects are presented in a way that everyone, history buffs, nonexperts, young and old alike, may find something fascinating, illuminating and memorable at the museum.

The security personal was walking and standing behind my back each and every second of my visit. As a matter of fact it was harrasment. After we leave the place, I found out they were having the same behavior with my wife, so I decided to write to the museum manager (or security manager I don 't remember) stating my complaint, and instead of looking at the facts or solving the situation, he told me I was lying. INCREDIBLE.... A PLACE I WILL NEVER VISIT AGAIN IN MY LIFE. How curious, of all the places I could visit in Europe, this was the only place in which I felt direct discrimination It is expensive, by the way. It does not worth the money for what you are going to find

Amazing amount of information and relics regarding Jewish history through the war. Well worth a trip. Also the ticket allows entry to both museums which are roughly 10 minutes walk from each other.

It's a must see museum. Nothing prepared us for the enormous quantity of Judaica Objects. Most of them were taken from Jewish synagogues all over Austria during the Holocaust. Here on display were the items that weren't melted. I liked the Antique Menorah, the giant Mezuzah and the Hebrew clock. It's a museum you must visit.

MUST-SEE IN VIENNA Everyone needs to go to a Jewish Museum in their lifetime. They are incredibly educational for anyone interested in learning about history and how it applies to the current day. In this particular museum, you explore the relationship between Vienna and Judaism. There is a long and interesting history that binds these two together. It is affordable to go in and worth every moment of time spent inside. The gift shop is lack-luster, but I didn’t go looking for souvenirs.

Really interesting museum about the history of Jews in Vienna and Austria. It covers in depth the early medieval history as well as after the Holocaust. It is touching how open they are about Austria’s own complicity. They have great materials about 19th century Jewry in Austria too.

Main building of the Jewish museum in Vienna (there's one more at Judenplatz). Comprehensive history of the Jewish community in the city plus a brief overview of the Holocaust. We left feeling there could have been much more to say and show at the museum.

The Jewish Museum of the City of Vienna is an amazing museum. Whenever I travel, I enjoy visiting the local Jewish Museums. What I really liked at this museum is the fact that there are lots of info about the Second World War in Vienna, Freud and about the Interwar period in Vienna. This museum has lots of interesting objects, but also lots of info about the life and legacy of the Jewish Community in the city of Vienna. Totally recommend this museum, as it is a must for people who want to discover more about their heritage or simply enjoy discovering and better understanding the Jewish Community of Vienna. S.P.

There are 2 buildings, I recommend starting with the one from the judenzplatz as it explains things that are relevant for the second location. I recommend the cafe from the second location, it has nice healthy vegetarian dishes for a good price and a day menu for 8 euros with a small main dish and a soup (oktober 2023). There is a lot of reading so for young kids it's not really interesting. Also, for the first location, don't miss the room with the archaeological site of the synagogue, I almost passed it without realizing.

Beautifully interesting museum! A lot of information about vienna’s jew culture since ww2 with modern exhibitions from our time also. It’s a small museum but with the ticket you can also visit the holocaust museum in Judenplatz.

Such a needed museum for all generations. Be sure to give yourself enough time to travel across town to the 2nd museum which is covered on your ticket purchase. Came away with an even deeper appreciation for the Jewish community (brothers and sisters in faith and oppression) from generation to generation. The rich yet painful lessons provided here need to be shared- now to prevent history from repeating itself.

Such a huge disappointment. This museum is so negative, bleak, disturbing, even grotesque. There should have been so much interesting info about Jewish life and history in Vienna, and instead, it's just...weird.

The main Jewish museum of Vienna, located in the 1st district. The building architecture wise is really well done. The restaurant serves very tasty kosher food and there is a little museum shop. The exhibitions are expanded in three floors. I saw the exhibition related with the communism which was quite interesting. The rest I didn’t like so much compared to other Jewish museums I have visited. Ticket is 12€ including the visit to the synagogue and to the Jewish institute.

I like to read about the WW2 and Auschwitz and this was a fascinating place to visit. There are items and information before the Holocaust and after, how the jewish community was seen then and how it is seen nowadays.

Just amazing and worth a visit!

Nice location but the museum is rather boring unless you are a vienna native or german speaker, some more interactive/visual aspects would make it better.

We only stopped at the cafe for lunch. They are a meat free restaurant with several vegan options. Their daily menu is really good value.

Fantastic exhibition about one of the most important 20th century legal philosopher!!!!

They were installing a new exhibit, so a few rooms were closed, but the permanent collection is beautifully displayed with plenty of information and explanation of artifacts in several languages. There was also a beautiful photography exhibit.

One of the two Jewish museums in Vienna containing artefacts and trinkets with detailed descriptions and their importance in history and the Jewish culture. With the entrance ticket, you can visit the other Jewish Museum within 4 days for free.

Interesting museum Not very hands on Alot of reading

Hard to say you loved a museum, but it was an excellent small museum. Very informative on the Jewish experience in Vienna.

Incredible museum of the more modern Jewish Viennese history. Not a huge museum, but the ticket also gets you into the Judenplatz Museum of medieval Jewish history in Vienna. Strongly recommend going the both in the same day.

Very informative museum. Its terrible to think what these people went through. You get entrance to two museums.

(Translated by Google) The Viennese in China. Well worth seeing, excellent documentation, touching contemporary witnesses. You'd have to come a second time to see everything. Great books on the subject are also available. (Original) Die Wiener in China. Sehenswert, ausgezeichnete Dokumentation, berührende Zeitzeugen. Man müsste ein zweites Mal kommen, um alles zu sehen. Auch tolle Bücher zum Thema erhältlich.

The museum is lovely and full of rare historic artifacts that will enthrall you. But besides the Jewish shop filled with beautiful cook books and hilarious hipster imitations of geniuses and influencers like Albert Einstein, one must visit the cafe Eskeles that is inside. This cafe serves delicious and wholesome vegetarian food based on the Jewish Cuisine that we all love. There is one or two fish dishes available. The cafe serves traditional food with there modern twist and anything I've tried on there menu has been delicious. I highly recommend there sweet potato burger and challenge you to eat it with your hands if you can. There staff is so friendly and there owners are completely hands on.

(Translated by Google) The exhibition on the Jews who fled the Nazis in Shanghai is worth seeing (Original) Die Ausstellung über die vor den Nazis geflohenen Juden in Schanghai ist sehenswert

Start with the top floor - impressive stuff!

Nice staff. Good prices. Three parts of the museum exists(including the library). Many of the information is available without audioguide/guide.

(Translated by Google) All 3 floors are interesting, very informative and the last floor with the collection is a cultural pleasure, recommendable to visit the museum. (Original) Alle 3 Stockwerke sind interressant,sehr informativ und der letzte Stock mit der Sammlung ein Kulturgenuss,empfehlenswert das Museum zu besuchen.

The Museum dives deep into the Jewish history in Vienna and also the stories of Rothschild family influence is intriguing.

A lots of information, sometimes too much information that you cannot bare anymore. Should be more concentrate due to traveling and time consuming while visiting the museum. Synagog illustration nice and special shows too, the second half was also good and gives you the opportunity to have more experience.

Interesting exhibits that showcase Jewish life and experience in Vienna. I found the museum very thought provoking.

Very impressive (and sometimes sad...), a lot of information. Kosher love temporary exhibition is very nice (most of the staff is well known for those familiar with Judaism and Jewish tradition but yet very well presented and explained).

Friendly informative receptionist. Interesting history of the jews the pre 1900 part I found the most interesting altough I wished for more but it is hard to get such information I suppose. You can visit both jewish museums with one ticket they are 5-10min from eachother

(Translated by Google) Simply beautiful and important for the cultural life of the city of Vienna. (Original) Einfach schön und wichtig für das kulturleben der Stadt Wien.

(Translated by Google) Interesting, informative, moving. (Original) Interessant, informativ, bewegend.

(Translated by Google) A lot of collected memorabilia and documents from the post-war period are presented in a very interesting way - the time was far too short for me! (Original) Viele zusammengetragene Erinnerungsstücke und Dokumente aus der Nachkriegszeit sehr interessant aufbereitet - mir ist die Zeit viel zu kurz gewesen!

(Translated by Google) Very interesting and very touching (Original) Sehr interessant und sehr berührend

Interesting museum. But you have to have a bit of pre knowledge to appreciate it. The staff at the entrance desk seemed a bit distracted but this could just be a slight difference in cultures.

Found in a narrow alley way, this is not the lagest Jewish Museum l have been to, but it is well presented, and all three sections l visited were very good and educational.

(Translated by Google) I saw the exhibition Jews in Shanghai and was very impressed. Compiled very well and informatively. The organization is also perfect. Stewards make sure that the safety distance is kept. (Original) Ich habe die Ausstellung Juden in Shanghai gesehen und war sehr beeindruckt. Sehr gut und informativ zusammengestellt. Auch die Organisation ist perfekt. Ordner achten darauf, dass der Sicherheitsabstand eingehalten wird.

Very enlightening and fascinating exhibits. Let down by no route guidance so you meander out of chronological order. Exhibits at varying heights on the walls, and odd lighting of explanations didn't help

(Translated by Google) Finally open again. (Original) Endlich wieder geöffnet.

It was okay and informative. Not the best presented or full museum I've been to. Not a must do but it was good.

So much to take in in such a space. Glad we went. Definitely for the history buff but expertly curated.

Very intriguing, lots of information, would´ve liked a bit more info on the time during WW2.

Very well done gives a full history of the Jewish people in Austria. I learned a lot that I did not know about that history. I recommend it to anybody who is interested in Jewish history.

Very interesting museum. Not huge but some ethnic moments of austrian history it is interesting to know. Cafe is on the ground floor and museum shop is too.

An interesting point of view about the Jewish contribution to the Viennese life, art, music. Additional details about the Holocaust would be useful. To do not forget it and to do not repeat it.

Outstanding museum. A must for anyone wanting to learn the complex history of Vienna. Top quality scholarship presented well to the public

Interesting exhibition about Hedy Lamarr, though little about her scientific interests. Nice to go to the remains of an ancient synagogue underground.

Cool place and very nicely organized. They should control how many people are inside at a time. The place was busy and bustling with people and one guy was not even wanting to wear a mask even though the security asked him to but he was just taking advantage of being handicapped. Crazy.

(Translated by Google) Visit which breaks down into 2 parts (Judish museum and Judishplatz museum: one ticket for both). The first part is interesting with a lot to discover but the second part doesn't really make sense .... (Original) Visite qui se décompose en 2 parties (Judish muséum et Judishplatz muséum : un ticket pour les 2) .. La première partie est intéressante avec de nombreuses choses à decouvrir mais la deuxième partie n’a pas réellement de sens ....

(Translated by Google) The museum is very interesting, but two-part. That is not bad, but one part is in the city center right next to shops and the other part is on Judenplatz, a 10-20 minute walk away. It is also not written that and how to get to the other part. Without a guide, you don't know your way around so well that the museum / museums have not been arranged in a very orderly manner. There is no timeline and you get the feeling that everything is simply set up and has no structure. All in all a very good museum if you deal with it extensively and know your way around. (Original) Das Museum ist zwar sehr interessant, aber 2-teilig. Das ist zwar nicht schlecht aber der eine Teil liegt in der Innenstadt direkt neben Geschäften und der andere Teil liegt am Judenplatz 10- 20 Minuten zu Fuß entfernt. Es ist auch nicht angeschrieben das und wie man zum anderen Teil hinkommt. Ohne Führung kennt man sich nicht so gut aus das/die Museum/Museen nicht sehr geordnet hergerichtet wurden. Es gibt keine Zeitleiste undman bekommt das Gefühl, dass alles einfach aufgestellt wurde und keine Struktur hat. Alles in allem ein ganz gutes Museum wenn man sich ausgiebig damit auseinandersetzt und sich auskennt.

(Original) Die Ausstellung Juden in China ist unglaublich einfühlsam und sehr gut verständlich zusammengestellt. Vielen Dank an die Kuratoren. Unbedingt besuchen.

Extraordinary! Well organized, three floors of interesting Viennese jewish history.

The Holocaust matter is totally absent! Except of one wall there is nothing. This is the JEWISH museum of Vienna so I would expect it to be mentioned much more.

(Translated by Google) Very interesting (Original) Sehr interessant
