The building of the Jewish Museum carries the memory of several symbolic historical events. The ornate row of windows in the second hall belonged to the original furnishing of the building that was transmitted in 1931 and miraculously survived the 20th century intact. The windows serve as reminders of the fact that the Museum was created with the support and donations of the rich and influential Jewish elite. All the windows enshrine the memory of a prestigious family, who often appear among the founders and donors of other charitable institutions in Pest.
On the glass pictures, there are mostly images of biblical stories: David and Goliath, the sacrifice of Isaac, Finding Moses, Haman and Mordechai, Daniel’s vision, the Pharaoh’s dream, King David’s prayer, by the rivers of Babylon, Solomon's Prayer of Dedication, Daniel in the lion’s den, Deborah, and Betzalel. The biblical themes are complemented by two historical images: the death of Judah Halevi and Maimonides surrounded by his disciples.
