The Sydney Jewish Museum is a history museum located in the Sydney suburb of Darlinghurst. It showcases exhibits relating to the Holocaust and the history and achievements of Jewish people in Australia. The Museum displays personal objects of Holocaust survivors and other Jewish Australians and hosts presentations of their personal testimonies.

The museum is housed in the historic Maccabean Hall, and was originally built to commemorate the contributions of the Jewish community from New South Wales who served in World War I. The building was formally opened on Armistice Day 1923 by Jewish-Australian civil engineer and Australian Army commander General Sir John Monash. Before Maccabean Hall was chosen to become the Sydney Jewish Museum, it served as a hub for Jewish life in Sydney. After World War II Maccabean Hall was employed for various uses, including migrants' English lessons, weddings, rallies, and commemorative events for Anzac soldiers and Holocaust victims.

The Sydney Jewish Museum was established in 1992 by Holocaust survivors who came to Australia. It was officially opened by Rear Admiral Peter Sinclair, the Governor of New South Wales, on 18 November 1992. The museum was founded by the late John Saunders and members of the Australian Association of Jewish Holocaust Survivors. Australia has a higher proportion of Holocaust survivors (per capita) than any country except Israel.

The museum library was originally created from the collection of books donated by the Australian Association of Jewish Holocaust Survivors. The Resource Centre and Library comprises over 6,000 volumes, journals, and tapes, including over 2,500 personal testimonies of Holocaust survivors in Australia. The centre is open to the public during museum hours and staffed by a librarian. The collection provides materials for exhibitions and covers themes such as antisemitism, war crimes, the Holocaust in art and literature, and Australian Jewish history.
