The Bernard Museum of Judaica is part of Temple Emanu-El on Manhattan's Upper East Side. Formerly known as the Herbert & Eileen Bernard Museum of Judaica, the museum has three galleries, two of which are used for temporary exhibit and one which houses the permanent collection. The museum's permanent collection is composed of more than 1,000 items that date back to the 1300s. The first two galleries are often used for temporary exhibitions. The third gallery is the permanent collection which contains items of Judaica and Temple memorabilia. Some of the museum's more than 1,000 objects date back to the 14th century.
