The museum continues the tradition of the local museum association, which was founded in 1905. It provides professional research and collection activities, especially in the fields of archaeology, history and ethnography.
The exposition of the museum presents steam locomobiles, tractors, stable engines produced in Czech, Moravian and world factories. The largest exhibit is a twenty-eight ton steam plough.
The synagogue is operated by the Museum of the Boskovice Region. It is a baroque building from 1639 with later modifications. Its vaults are decorated with Hebrew liturgical texts. The tour includes an exposition of the History of Jews in Boskovice and the possibility to visit the Jewish ritual bath - mikveh.
The museum exposition in three rooms on the first floor of the building shows the richness of the forms of Jewish quarters in our country, the historical reasons for their creation, the reasons for their location and situating, their typical manifestations in terms of urban, architectural and functional aspects.
