Musée d'Art Juif

The institution you are seeking, the Musée d Art Juif, originally occupied a different home entirely. Founded in 1948 in the Montmartre district at forty-two rue des Saules, it functioned as a private museum created by survivors of the Holocaust. Its goal was to preserve the heritage of communities destroyed during the war. By 1998, the vast majority of its collection was moved to a grander venue in the Marais district, where it was integrated into the much larger Musée d Art et d Histoire du Judaïsme.
