It's more than a museum. It's a restored landmark building and absolutely beautiful. I just went for the first time with some long lost cousins.

The synagogue opened in 1887, becoming the spiritual home for the first Eastern European Orthodox Jewish congregation in America. Docents provide informal tours to handfuls of visitors.
