This menorah dates back to at least 1767, when it was donated to a synagogue in Buergel, Germany. It was presented to Harry Truman in 1951 and is among the gifts from heads of state Truman Library. In 2008, it was borrowed by the White House for that year's Hanukkah reception.

In 1933, President Hoover declared the National Archives Building a “temple of our history.” Today it was officially designated a National Historic Landmark! It’s a well-deserved distinction for this extraordinary building that is surpassed only by the treasures held within.
