Austrian Jewish Museum and Wertheimer Family Synagogue

The Austrian Jewish Museum was very fortunate to be able to settle in a historic building of the former Jewish quarter of Eisenstadt. The museum is located in a place where a notable Jewish community settled for more than 250 years. The museum was founded in 1972 as the first Jewish museum in Austria after 1945. During a visit, you can not only see the former private synagogue and the museum’s collections, but also catch a glimpse of the old houses of the Jewish quarter and the two Jewish cemeteries.
