Collection
Religion, culture and history of the Jews in the Netherlands and
its former colonies are the main focus of the museum's collection
and the Resource Centre.
The museum has over 13,000 works of art,
ceremonial items and historical objects. Only five percent of these
are on permanent display. The rest are stored in the depot and
occasionally shown in exhibitions, or lent to other museums. The
objects in this hidden collection can be viewed via the
website.
