The Austrian Jewish Museum was the first Jewish museum to be founded in Austria after 1945. The main aim of the museum is to impart knowledge, to arouse interest in Judaism, but also to reduce misunderstandings and prejudices, to preserve Jewish culture and tradition and to promote new approaches to education and science. To this end, we are increasingly focusing on linking tradition, cultural heritage and living Judaism. If you share our values and would like to contribute to imparting knowledge in an interesting, modern and creative way, you are very welcome to join us.
