Miami Beach - Jewish Museum of Florida

The Jewish Museum of Florida is comprised of two former synagogues, both on the National Register of Historic Places. The buildings were restored by the museum and joined with a glass domed café.

The primary building is an Art Deco structure, completed in 1936, features a copper dome, a marble bimah and 80 stained-glass windows. The expansion site is Miami Beach's first synagogue.

This museum traces the history of the Jewish experience in Florida since the 18th century. The permanent collection is called "Mosaic: Jewish life in Florida" and displays various relevant objects and Judaica. The films presented at the Jewish Museum highlight the Jewish life cycle and holiday observances.
