An anthropological experience of the two daughters of Joseph Bau, a creative man, one of the fathers of graphic design in Israel, a Holocaust survivor with an extraordinary life story. The sisters keep the place and the amazing story they keep alive is worth a visit. Ask questions and note that the story is not over.

Invitation to Silence

Reviewed By SamKaufman613 - Newark, United States

We went to the deaf museum -- invitation to silence. I had been told that the "blind museum" was better. I have done both. i thought the "Invitation to Silence" was excellent. Our group of 4 really enjoyed it. We did benefit from a terrific guide, Edna. I thought it was worth the time. I think both exhibits are excellent!

Beit Hatfutsot - The Museum of the Jewish People

-Beit Hatfutsot is currently closed until further notice, due to the Corona virus crisis- Beit Hatfutsot, the Museum of the Jewish People, tells the ongoing and extraordinary story of the Jewish people. Beit Hatfutsot connects Jewish people to their roots and strengthens their personal and collective Jewish identity. Beit Hatfutsot conveys to the world the fascinating narrative of the Jewish people and the essence of the Jewish culture, faith, purpose and deed while presenting the contribution of world Jewry to humanity.

I had not been to Bet Hatfutsot for over 20 years, but having heard about its remodeling and redefining itself along with the interesting subjects they were exhibiting there, I went to the museum with my Israeli partner, who had never been there. We stayed almost 4 hours, visiting each exhibit, both permanent and temporary. Some of the museum is still under remodeling, but that did not take away one bit of the meaningful, exciting, stimulating and thought-provoking time we had there. It is a MUST SEE place, for Israelis, Jews and non- Jews alike. The children's exhibit should be experienced by all visitors, young and old.The exhibit there is energetic, creative, , fun and informative.The temporary exhibits on Bob Dylan, Ethiopian Jews in Israel and the war photographer, Chim, were curated in a state-of-the art design. But it was the permanent exhibit hall with the reconstructed synagogues and the films and the cartoons showing Jewish history, customs, prayers, dialogue and connection that was the most moving. The courageous and honest depiction of Judiasm both here in Israel and throughout the world as a pluralistic, dynamic and sensitive religion was so refreshing! I have nothing but praise for the Museum, its content and its message.

Join us for an interactive, immersive experience telling the story of the Striking Forces of the 'Hagana' Organiztion, through an audio-visual exhibition. Go back in time with the typical Palmach squad and become one of them for a day! All tours are guided and a reservation must be made in advance.

Reviewed By matthD3758QT

The Palmach Museum tells the story...in an extremely active and compelling way...of the Palmach "striking force" during the 1948 War for Independence. It follows a company of Palmach fighters from recruiting, through training, and into the various operations they conducted...operations in which some of them were killed. It is a powerful and moving presentation of the price of freedom, and will help you to understand why it is, even today, every Israeli's duty and responsibility to be training and ready to defend their homeland.

Worth finding , we spent quite a few hours learning about the man , his career , and his legacy . The exhibition is well laid out and the audio guide is informative , the still life photographs and video footage have been well thought out .
