Tower of David

  Tower of David is a historic citadel situated just outside the Old City of Jerusalem, near the Jaffa Gate. Dating back to the 2nd century BC, this fortress once served as a royal palace and a defense structure. Today, it functions as a museum showcasing Jerusalem's fascinating history through archaeological artifacts and multimedia exhibits.

The museum organizes special programs and events, particularly vibrant in May during its annual Night Spectacular, where the Citadel is illuminated with captivating light shows.
