Museum Judenplatz

Very interesting and informative on Jewish history in Vienna. The books attached to the seats are worth looking at and reading as they have more detail on the points mentioned around the museum. Highly recommend visiting!

This place is really well done. It’s small but packed a huge punch. The quality of the exhibits is incredible and they even considered how to entertain kids in a museum like this. The excavation of the 14th century synagogue and the augmented reality technology was unbelievable. However, I couldn’t access the audio guide for the ruins because my phone had no signal in that part of the museum which is likely common among others.

An important museum! Come here to see right underneath the Holocaust memorial the excavated remains of Vienna's medieval synagogue. The exhibition highlights the struggles of the Vienna's Jews through the ages from roman times. (For the struggle during WWII and since, turn to Vienna's Jewish museum's main site at Dorotheergasse 11). This place is absolutely worth a trip.

Really enjoyed our visit to both the Jewish Museums. Loads of very informative displays, all nicely laid out.

A detailed history of the first Jewish community set up in the Mifdle Ages that had such a sudden and tragic end. The original foundations remnants of the oldest synagogue make an incredicle impression. The story of the Judenplatz is also amazing and reflects the twisted history of Jewish-Austrian relations. A totally worth visiting site!
