Close alert

The Center is a physical presence for JewishGen, the largest Jewish genealogy and family history website and a division of the Museum of Jewish Heritage. Center staff and volunteers are on hand to assist in uncovering your family’s past. Jewish Genealogical research can be complicated, with hidden details and languages we may not know. Our experts will answer questions, and help visitors navigate across JewishGen and many other critical resources which will be accessible at the Center.

The Center is open when the Museum is open on Thursdays and Sundays.
Museum tickets are required to visit the center.
