Tower of David Jerusalem Museum

The Tower of David Jerusalem Museum, located in the ancient citadel of Jerusalem’s Old City, tells the multifaceted story of the city of Jerusalem through a fusion of ancient artefacts and interactive and immersive technology. Following a decade in planning and a four-year and $50 million dollar renewal and conservation project, the new and groundbreaking permanent exhibition, shown in the ancient guard rooms of the citadel, offers a nuanced look at the city’s rich history and fosters dialogue about its future. A multi-disciplinary team of professional worked to create an engaging and accessible museum, providing visitors a unique opportunity to learn about their own heritage while gaining an understanding of the heritage of others and the significance of Jerusalem to Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. Now with the opening of the new Angelina Drahi Entrance Pavilion in March 2024, there is a new rotating exhibition space. On September 18th, Zadok Ben-David’s solo exhibition On the Other Side opened to the general public, housed in the new entrance pavilion gallery and throughout the complex of the citadel. Visitors can explore the ancient towers, enjoy stunning views of the city, and experience immersive exhibitions that bring Jerusalem’s diverse heritage to life. Spread over 2.5 acres, the Tower of David is the national heritage site that greets every visitor to the Old City and the Tower of David Jerusalem Museum has become the new gateway to Jerusalem’s Old City.
