The Jewish community in Milwaukee has a rich history, beginning with a significant influx in the 1840s that shaped the city's development. Jewish immigrants played key roles in business, politics, and the arts, establishing themselves as community leaders. Congregation Emanu-El B'ne Jeshurun, founded in 1856, stands out as one of Wisconsin's earliest congregations and continues to thrive. Throughout the years, the community has fostered various social clubs and artistic endeavors, contributing to the cultural landscape of Milwaukee.
