Small and modest, the exhibit will be sufficient to give you an idea of the Sephardic Jews’ history on Sarajevo from its beginnings to the holocaust. The museum is housed on a beautiful old synagogue, which alone makes the visit worthwhile.

this a small museum about the Sarajevo Jews history. It is placed in a very old medieval synagogue definitely worth seeing. Has a small entrance ticket

This beautiful building dates back 500 years and survived the wars with relatively little damage. Now only used religiously on special Jewish occasions it is converted to a museum over 3 floors displaying various artifacts of Jewish culture and their time in Bosnia & Hertzogovina. A large book hangs from the ceiling detailing the names of 12000 Jews killed here in WW2. The displayed circumcision knife made my eyes water. Very cheap to enter, just 3KM.

Not much information...weird display set up. Otherwise, decent.

Amazing and poignant! A beautiful structure still being used occasionally by the Jewish community of Sarajevo, Bosnia Filled with real artifacts and photos cataloguing the history of Sephardic Jews in Sarajevo, before WWII. Run by Jews, but made as a sober but loving gift to everyone, this restored synagogue & museum give justice to the triumph of the Chosen people under the Nazis and the efforts of non-Jewish Bosnians to resist the systematic antisemitic propoganda, risking their lives to save their Jewish neighbors!
