The museum, designed by Daniel Libeskind, is organized in a symbolic way, as a testimony of the rich history of the Jewish life in Germany and Berlin, the dramatic history of the WWII and the problematic post-war reconciliation and current renewal.

Nowadays, Jewish life in Berlin is considered one of the fastest growing communities in the world.
