The entire diversity of Jewish history, art and culture - including the current situation of Jewish life - is the focus of the Jüdisches Museum München (Jewish Museum Munich). In its changing exhibitions, it deals with the multi-layered perspectives of this topic.

The permanent exhibition "Stimmen_Orte_Zeiten" (Voices_Places_Times) offers new impulses and information on the Jewish past and present in Munich. In seven installations, eyewitness narratives, ritual objects, photographs, videos and comic strips break up familiar ways of seeing and make Jewish history visible as an integral part of the city's history.

The Jüdisches Museum München (Jewish Museum Munich) is a lively place for the diversity of Jewish history and culture, for the diversity of Jewish lifeworlds and identities, and for dealing with issues of migration and participation.
