This is a must stop for all who are interested in Biblical history and anthropology and cultures of the region. I have visited this museum many times with international guests who were all fascinated to learn about the Samaritans. HaKohen Yefet and his team have done a great job documenting the history and faith of the Samaritan Israelites and building displays. I highly recommend visiting the Samaritan museum on Mount Gerizim.

Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 17 reviews
Mount Gerizim covers an area of a hundred acres and contains the remains of the Hellenistic city and Byzantine church compound. The tour lasts about an hour and a half to two hours. The site also includes a museum, church, Passover sacrificial site and a tahini paste factory. We recommend combining your tour with a preliminary tour of the Samaritan neighborhood. For opening hours, please visit our website.

This site is administered by the Israel National Parks association. It has parking, restrooms and a small gift shop. There is an entrance fee and a video presentation. Beautiful views from the top of the mountain which is one of the highest peaks in this area. Tells the story of the Samaritan people to whom this mountain is considered holy. We pass through the Samaritain neighborhood to reach this site. In the neighborhood there is a museum and other attractions nearby. Very worthy of a visit.
