First time at the jewish museum and can say that I will definitely go back. Lots of interesting facts abou their history and culture. Ian and Roberta are amazing, they were patient answering all our questions and explaining facts their migration to Australia. We were even invited to the synagogue! I don’t have any polish background or Jewish family however I respect this people for all they have been through and their resilience to cope and keep the community together.

Loved visiting this place for an exhibition. They did a great job with a world class subject. My only comment would be the lighting wasn't good enough but you can't have everything and it was a very interesting exhibition. The permanent Jewish exhibition was also interesting.Visited onWeekdayWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedYes

Having a Polish Jewish grandparent that survived WWII before migrating to Australia, I thought it would be a great idea to check this place out. Admittedly I only have limited knowledge about Judaism, but this place is fantastic. There's so much about the history of Melbourne's Jewish community and Judaism in general. They even offer a free tour of the synagogue across the road at no extra charge once per day. You should visit and support this museum and the Jewish community in Melbourne.

A very interesting and well curated permanent exhibition of Jewish culture throughout time.  Also currently on exhibition well worth a visit is Helmut Newton's photography.  Very interesting.  I enjoyed the series of short films before I went up to the exhibition.  Perhaps the rear entrance is accessible for wheelchairs and other limited mobilities, prams etc.

Every human being has limited time and energy. To undertake the limitation of energy, we collaborate with other people to create a gestalt. I always wonder the solutions for that of time. Today visiting the Jewish museum and their Synagogue, I figured out one key answer is to build a strong culture for the next generations. A collective unconsciousness for open-minded thoughts.

It was my first time at the Jewish Museum for the Mirka Mora exhibition which will run until December 2021. It's a beautiful curated exhibition held in a beautiful space. The staff were outstanding and engaging. Do yourself a favour and take the time to book and see this exhibition an hour out of your time. Mirka is such an iconic part of Australian culture and well worth it!!!

How clever to show us the one thing missing from the Helmut Newton story his START in Melbourne....sure its less glamous, but very realistic for any pro photographer trying to make a living in our city. Thank you.

Phenomenal gallery space with wonderful visitor service officers! Really loved the Helmut Newton exhibition at the moment!

The History of the Australian Jewish Community. When coming to Melbourne the Jewish Museum is a must visit. From the tour guides to all of the fascinating galleries in the museum it is exceptionally well presented.

I attended the Jewish Museum to see the Helmut Newton exibition and stayed  on to view the whole museum. I was assisted in the Newton exibition by one of the wonderful volunteers. She was able to point out numerous insights I would have missed. Super thankful. The rest of the museum provided a great overview of the history of the Jewish faith including insights into the darkest times through world war 2. This provided a poignont counterpoint to Netwon's story, having left Germany in 1938, whilst his mentor and her husband sadly did not leave in time and did not survive the war.
