Museum of Jewish Heritage - A Living Memorial to the Holocaust

The Museum of Jewish Heritage opened in 1997 at Battery Park as a living memorial and museum dedicated to documenting the Holocaust and Jewish life before, during, and after World War II. The museum presents permanent and rotating exhibitions, survivor testimonies, educational programs, and archival collections to support public understanding and remembrance. Its waterfront location and programmatic mission combine commemorative spaces with community-facing exhibitions and learning initiatives.
