The Museum at Eldridge Street
The Museum at Eldridge Street is located in the Eldridge Street Synagogue, a magnificent National Historic Landmark. Opened in 1887, the synagogue is the first great house of worship built in America by Jewish immigrants from Eastern Europe. Following a loving and meticulous restoration, the Museum now serves as a vibrant cultural and educational center in its Lower East Side neighborhood, welcoming people of all faiths and cultural backgrounds for exhibits, tours, walking tours, concerts, lectures, classes festivals, school programs and more.
