Stadtmuseum Judenburg

Stadtmuseum Judenburg is the local history museum of Judenburg, a Styrian town in the Mur Valley whose name translates directly as "Jews' fortress" and reflects a medieval Jewish community that was expelled in 1496 along with most Austrian Jewish communities under Maximilian I.

Stadtmuseum Judenburg covers the history of one of the more historically layered towns in Styria’s Mur Valley, including the medieval Jewish community for which the town is named (expelled in 1496) and the town’s role as a trading center in the upper Mur Valley. Located at Kaserngasse 22. Judenburg is on the Graz-Klagenfurt rail line, about 60 minutes from Graz. Check museum-murtal.at for hours.
