- Jewish Historical Museum - A visit to Amsterdam is incomplete without exploring the Jewish Museum. Situated within four historic synagogues, this museum provides an insightful view into the rich tapestry of Jewish life in the Netherlands, both past and present. The museum boasts an extensive multimedia collection, featuring everything from paintings to films, everyday items to 3D displays, and regularly hosts one or two temporary exhibitions.
- Jewish Museum Junior - Nestled within the Jewish Museum is a special section dedicated to children! The Jewish Museum Junior is designed as a Jewish family home with six rooms, where children aged 6 to 12 can engage in games that educate them about Jewish culture—sometimes seriously, sometimes with humor. Kids can bake bread in the kosher kitchen, learn Hebrew in the study, or create music together in the music room.
- Portuguese Synagogue - At the heart of the Jewish Cultural Quarter lies the stunning Portuguese Synagogue. While it continues to serve as a place of worship, it is also open to the public and frequently hosts concerts. The 17th-century interior remains completely preserved and is beautifully lit by hundreds of candles. The surrounding buildings house treasure chambers where visitors can view a remarkable collection of ceremonial objects crafted from silver, gold, silk, and brocade.
