Lillian & Albert Small Jewish Museum
Lillian & Albert Small Jewish Museum, Historical synagogue and museum in Judiciary Square, Washington D.C., United States.
The museum occupies a preserved 19th-century synagogue building featuring exhibits about Jewish life in the Washington metropolitan area through three dedicated floors.
The synagogue's dedication ceremony in 1876 marked a milestone as President Ulysses S. Grant became the first sitting president to attend a Jewish religious service.
The museum collection includes personal items from Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg and artifacts from White House Hanukkah celebrations, representing Jewish influence in American governance.
The museum offers guided tours, educational programs, and school group visits focusing on Jewish history, with specialized resources for teachers and families.
The original synagogue structure underwent multiple relocations before finding its current place at Third and F Streets NW as part of a 25,000-square-foot facility.
