The Jewish Historical Museum (Joods Historisch Museum) is located in the centre of Amsterdam's former Jewish quarter. Housed in four 17th and 18th century High-German synagogues, the permanent exhibition reflects the versatility of Judaism in the present and the past. The Museum also has its own children's Museum.
