A small but significant piece of Greek Jews. Ticket is somehow expensive... More

Out of 85000 jews 65000 perished in the furnaces of various concentration camps. This more than a museum is a legacy to their present. I have been to many Jewish museums and I wished they were visited by more gentiles. More

What impresses me about this museum is the excellence of the concept. One comes away with an excellent idea of what the Jewish communities of Greece were like, without being crushed by the tragedy of their destruction. The museum has been important also as a cultural institution, helping to restore a sense of awareness of Jewish culture. One of my... More

A compact but warm and beautiful Museum that surprises you on each and every step. Don't miss the touch screen with the multimedia pages about the Jewish History of the country.

Really interesting museum on a little side street in Athens. I think it was approx 5 euro's entrance fee. We went on a Sunday morning and were the only visitors. I learnt a great deal in a one hour visit. More

This museum is held in what appears to be a former home. It consists of four floors. The whole museum can easily be seen within an hour.

When I read that there was a Jewish Museum I wanted to find it to learn something about the history of Greek Jews. The museum is small but nice and worth popping into since it's right in the downtown core. More

Based on a recommendation from a local Athens professional tour guide we found our way to the Jewish Museum in Central Athens. Housed in a plan buiding in the Plaka section of Athens we were so impressed by what we found in the museum. It chronicles that history of the Jews of Greece from ancient (B.C.) to the present day...
