"The museum is as much an architectural experience as it is a collection: the fusion of an 18th-century structure with Daniel Libeskind’s jagged contemporary addition creates a disquieting, intentionally disorienting path—slanting floors and jutting walls—into exhibitions that move from basic tenets of Judaism to underground, sparse displays documenting the Holocaust. When the modern part is quiet, the architecture amplifies the emotional weight—confused footfalls and sighs—making the space both perversely beautiful and profoundly affecting." - Liz Humphreys, Krystin Arneson
Architecturally striking museum chronicles German-Jewish history and Holocaust.
