The “Shamash” Museum has opened on al-Rashid Street in Baghdad as the only museum in Iraq dedicated to the Jewish community. It documents the history of a community whose roots stretch back some 2,600 years and whose members now number only in the dozens. The museum houses documents, photographs, school records, testimonies and personal belongings, and welcomed more than 1,000 visitors on its opening day. The building was once a Jewish school, established in 1928. It was later confiscated and made a government school, before being returned to the community by a court ruling in 1992.
