Did you know

Among the collection is a 13th-century mikveh (Jewish ritual bath) discovered in the basement of a City of London house, and the Lindo Lamp, a 1709 silver Hanukah lamp that's the oldest of its kind in England.

Local tip

It's open Sunday to Thursday, 12pm-7pm only (closed Friday and Saturday), and it's just two rooms, not the full museum experience the old Camden site offered. Entry is free, with donations welcome.
