A continuity of Jewish life within Jerusalem's walls

Exhibitions

Main

The Isaak Kaplan Old Yishuv Court Museum, documenting a world no longer existing: the old Jewish settlement which lived inside the old city walls for 500 years, before the city was occupied by the Jordanians.
From the many Items, the story of its past owners comes to life: stories of marriage and birth, happy and sad times, everyday coping with life's difficulties, being satisfied with little and believing in the almighty.
Both temporary and permanent exhibits are on display in the museum.
In addition, it offers tours ,lectures, workshops and special programs.
