The Jewish Museum of Belgium in Brussels houses a collection of religious objects dating from the 16th century, as well as documents and books that illustrate traditional Jewish home life.

In addition to objects that illustrate Jewish customs throughout Europe are a number of pieces, including textiles and silver, made in Belgium.

The museum does not address the fate of Belgium's Jewish population during World War II; for that, see the National Monument to the Jewish Martyrs of Belgium.
