Overview

Visit the Museum of Jewish Heritage, New York’s contribution to the global responsibility to never forget.

The striking building is topped by a pyramid structure, known as the Living Memorial to the Holocaust. You’ll also find a memorial garden, Garden of Stones, designed by internationally acclaimed sculptor Andy Goldsworthy, providing a contemplative space.

The Museum is the third-largest Holocaust museum in the world, containing over 40,000 artifacts, photographs, documentary films, and survivor testimonies. The museum hosts fascinating temporary exhibitions throughout the year, with thoughtful perspectives on the community’s harrowing history. Take a look at the current exhibitions here.

Easy to combine with other sights. (We learned more than expected in a short visit, matching what friends told us—but better in person.)
