Welcome to 

The Danish Jewish Museum

The Danish Jewish Museum is a state-recognized cultural history museum that contains the story of 400 years of Danish Jewish history. 

The museum gives you a new perspective on Danish history. It tells stories about integration, assimilation, conflicts and inclusiveness.

It is all conveyed in a beautiful and challenging architecture designed by the world-famous architect Daniel Libeskind.

Lessons

Workshop for visual arts teachers

 

On Friday, August 28, we invite visual arts teachers to a free workshop on architecture. We look forward to showcasing the museum with its crooked floors and engaging in dialogue about a new curriculum for visual arts, where we create vibrant, sensory encounters between students and museum spaces.

Danish Jewish history is also a history of beer. In 1873, Philip W. Heyman founded Tuborgs Fabrikker. We have stuffed the history on the label and bottle of our two beers. They are organic – and of course they are kosher.
