JEWISH MUSEUM
Museum exploring the history of Frankfurt's Jews, covering emancipation, rebirth, daily life and religion.
The museum traces the history of Frankfurt's Jews back to the 11th century. Long subject to the vagaries of imperial and city politics, they were confined to a ghetto consisting of one street, Judengasse, which housed around 3,000 people. Exhibitions look back at the slow emancipation of the 19th century, then the Holocaust, and finally the rebirth of the community in the city after the war. On the site of the former ghetto, an annex, the Museum Judengasse, can be visited independently, and features archaeological remains of the street.
