Memory is then the key-word which
combines past and present, past and future.

Remembering means that we must renew
our belief in humanity, as a challenge to
humanity, and thus to give meaning to
our weak endeavours.

Elie Wiesel

The theme of "remembrance" is omnipresent throughout the Jewish Museum Vienna.
It is a key to Jewish culture and permeates the Museum right down to the smallest detail. But remembering also means active confrontation, and the museum is therefore a place to meet, communicate and discuss. Apart from the exhibitions, it offers a wide range of symposiums, lectures, panel discussions, concerts and many other events. The permanent exhibition is supplemented every year by numerous temorary exhibitions on Jewish history, religion and culture.
