Nestled just a short walk from Syntagma Square, the Jewish Museum of Athens offers a profound journey through 2,300 years of Jewish history in Greece. Originally housed in a small synagogue, the museum expanded in 1997 to its current location, a move prompted by growing visitor interest and a burgeoning collection of historical artifacts. With more than 10,000 pieces on display, the museum presents a rich tapestry of the Greek-Jewish experience, exploring both religious and secular aspects of life throughout the centuries. Each exhibit invites reflection on the deep-rooted presence and resilience of the Jewish community within the broader narrative of Greek history.
