Jewish Museum London
Former museum of British Jewish life
About
The Jewish Museum London is a museum of British Jewish life, history and identity. It reopened in 2010 after a two-year-long £10 million renovation funded by the Heritage Lottery Fund and other donors. It continues to exist but is currently without permanent premises. The events, programmes and activities at the museum aim to provoke questions, challenge prejudice, and encourage understanding. In June 2026 the British government pledged £1 million of funding to help secure the museum's future.
Until 2023 the museum was situated in Camden Town in the London Borough of Camden, north London. It was a place for people of all faiths to explore Jewish history, culture, and heritage. The museum had a dedicated education team, with a programme for schools, community groups and families. King Charles III is a patron of the museum.
