Hidden Treasures

Celebrating Jewish Archives in Britain.

Hidden Treasures is a celebration of Jewish archives in Britain. We showcase collections from across the UK that tell the story of Jews and their experiences in Britain. We also help communities and individuals discover and preserve their own stories.

Hidden Treasures is a project of the Board of Deputies of British Jews.

Archives featured on the website are part of a national network of state, local and communal archives that will enable you to discover more about the history of Jews and the Jewish community in Britain. It might even help you uncover some of your own family’s history.

We are always looking for new archives to feature so if you are an institution, organisation or community group with an archive that relates to the history of Jews in Britain, then please get in touch.
