Jewish Museum (London, England)The Jewish Museum was founded in 1932 by Professor Cecil Roth, Alfred Rubens and Wilfred Samuel. Originally located in Woburn House in Bloomsbury, it moved to Camden Town in 1994. The London Museum of Jewish Life was founded in 1983 as the Museum of the Jewish East End. Its aim was to rescue and preserve the heritage of London’s East End. In 1995, the two museums merged. Between 1995 and 2007 the combined Jewish Museum ran on two sites. Both sites combined and the new Museum was opened on March 17, 2010. In 2015 the Jewish Museum London partnered with the Jewish Military Museum. The Museum assumes responsibility for the Jewish Military Museum’s entire collection, research archive, and learning programmes.
