The museum is located in the building of the former Magdeburg Barracks, which served as the headquarters of the so-called Jewish Self-Government during the ghetto era. Today, this building houses extensive exhibitions presenting to the public the unique artistic, musical, literary and theatrical works of the ghetto inhabitants.

The gallery specializes in the presentation of Czech art. In the hall of the former chateau riding hall we offer a permanent exhibition of Czech modern art from the beginning of the 20th century, we also organize temporary exhibitions. We organize lectures, concerts and art courses for schools, children and adults.
