The Museum of Pennsylvania Jewish History

The Museum of Pennsylvania Jewish History collects photographs, documents, interviews and writings developed by students in JST/HIST115, The American Jewish Experience, at Penn State University. Students in this course have the opportunity to conduct hands-on historical research into Pennsylvania Jewish history. During spring break, the students fan out around the state to visit historical sites, archives, and people with information about Pennsylvania’s Jewish past.
