Jewish Historical Museum, Jewish museum in Stari Grad, Serbia
The Jewish Historical Museum is located on the first floor of a 1928 building in central Belgrade, marked by a prominent inscription about the Jewish Religious-School Community. The collection includes ethnological objects, documents, and photographs that trace the long presence of Jewish people in Serbia.
The institution was founded in 1948 and records approximately 2000 years of Jewish history on the Balkans. Through its holdings, one can trace how the community developed and changed over centuries in this region.
The museum displays objects from daily life and religious celebrations that reflect the customs and experiences of Serbia's Jewish community. These items tell stories of traditions and practices that shaped the lives of families across different time periods.
The museum sits in the heart of Belgrade and is easy to reach by public transport, with signage on the building. Opening hours are limited, so it is wise to check ahead before visiting to ensure it will be open.
The museum archives contain carefully annotated reports written by Jasa Almuli, a former president of the Belgrade Jewish Community. These personal documents offer a rare insider perspective on life within the community during key moments in history.
