The museum stages temporary exhibitions which integrate the unique location and majesty of the ancient Citadel and its history with a contemporary presentation of artistic and historical issues. It hosts lectures and special musical, educational and cultural events. The 2 night shows, both the Night Spectacular and KING DAVID are world renowned and present Jerusalem's special character and beauty screened in lights, images and music on the ancient walls in the Citadel courtyard.

The audio tour, available to rent at the ticket counter, is very good, gives a lot of extra detail to the exhibits. The Citadel is very impressive and the tour ties it in with the various stages of the region's history and the development of the town. Good place to visit with kids as they can go up on the ramparts.
