An interesting place that needs to focus less on documents but more decorative stuff, it can get boring fast

It’s a very small museum, but totally worth visiting. Be sure to take free audio in English (or maybe they have one in your language) and go around.

The museum is devoted to Jewish culture, tradions, different famous Jewish persons and express the Holocaut time. Holocaut time exhibition had very hard atmosphere, you can find photos and some belongings of peoples. At the same floor where is located the museum is reachable amazing hall, where we enjoyed the concert at Museum Night 2019. During the museum night we had pleasure to participate in Jewish dance and it was AWESOME. Music was pleasant, fast and dancer teachers high professionals. If you want to learn the Jewish dances, then each Wednesday at 6.00 p.m. you are welcome to join the dancers club. I highly reccomend!!!

For Latvia's small Jewish community this museum has quite a sizeable exhibit. Rīga was once a haven of Jewish cultural tradition due to it's large Jewish population. Mostly decimated during the Holocaust, Rīga's Jewish population is seeing a slow resurrgence in recent years. This museum was pleasure to visit, rich in history. As expected a large section was dedicated to Latvia's Holocaust years, including the notable people who saved the lives of Jews during WWII.

Excellent source of information on the holocaust in Latvia as well as Jewish life and people if pre-WWII. Audio explanations in English, Russian, and Latvian. Numerous photos and artifacts, even German film footage of the atrocities.
