Danish Jewish Museum

The Danish Jewish Museum (Danish: Dansk Jødisk Museum ) is a museum in Copenhagen, which documents the approximately 400-year history of the Jews in Denmark. One focus is the rescue of the Danish Jews during the occupation by Nazi Germany in October 1943.

The museum is located in the center of the Danish capital, slot bars, in a former building of the old building of the Royal Danish Library, built in 1622 by King Christian the Fourth. It was designed by architect Daniel Libeskind and opened in the summer of 2004. The building resembles the inside of the Jewish Museum Berlin, which stems from the same architect and opened in 1999.

The museum displays paintings, drawings, photographs, books, newspapers, videos and movies.
