Jewish Museum and Tolerance Center

The Jewish Museum and Tolerance Center was Russia's first "edutainment" museum. Its display is centered on digital and interactive artifacts rather than historical materials, allowing visitors to learn about the history of the Jewish people in Russia from the early days of the Russian empire to the present day. Because the entire museum is digital, it is always up to date with the most recent material, and it hosts a variety of lectures, seminars, and temporary exhibitions. A lot of emphases is also placed on the history of the Russian avant-garde — a distinct form of art molded by revolutionary ideals and promises for a better future.


The museum is housed in one of the avant-garde structures, Bakhmetyev Garage, which was specially refurbished for the Tolerance Center's purposes. This museum, which is dedicated to the complicated history of Russian Jewry, includes human testimony, historical film footage, and interactive displays, all of which are translated into Russian and English. The exhibits are organized chronologically to assist visitors to comprehend the lives of Jewish communities as they moved across medieval Europe, living in shtetls before going to cities. The fate of Soviet Jews and the role of Jewish troops during World War II are discussed, as well as the significance of Russian Jewry in public life in the late nineteenth and early twentieth century.
