Part of:
Religion and Ritual: Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur
Public Guided Tour (in German)
A special edition of our guided tour Religion and Ritual focuses on Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur. According to oral tradition, the Jewish New Year, Rosh Hashanah, marks the day on which the creation of the world was completed; translated, the words mean “Head of the Year.” Yom Kippur, the Day of Atonement, follows nine days after Rosh Hashanah, and together they form the High Holy Days of Judaism. In 2026, Rosh Hashanah will be celebrated on September 12 and 13, and Yom Kippur will fall on September 21.
We also take a look at the Torah, the Holy Scripture of Judaism. From an early age, children around the world learn to read Hebrew so they can read the Torah. Visitors learn more about the significance of the Holy Scripture for Jewish people today and how it is interpreted. A sounding world map brings to life the Jewish languages that have developed in the Diaspora.
In the installation Why Follow the Law, Jews discuss their personal approaches to religious commandments. Objects and everyday items illustrate Jewish practices such as dietary laws (kashrut) or the commandment of charity (tzedakah). A flamenco dress, a sewing pillow, and a crown offer insights into the diversity within Judaism.
