DESCRIPTION
Entitled Tikva, which means Hope in Hebrew, the Jewish Museum Lisbon will portray the history of the Jewish presence in the territory that is now Portugal, namely in Lisbon, and will share the contribution of the Jews by showing that the Jewish heritage is an indissoluble part of the country’s history. It intends to preserve and divulge Jewish memory and experience and to value cultural differences, thus promoting inter-religious integration.
The Museum will be located in Belém of Lisbon, Portugal and is currently in design.
