Known forhistoryOld Cityarchitecturenight show
Housed inside the ancient citadel at the Jaffa Gate, this museum traces 4,000 years of Jerusalem's history through archaeological layers and exhibits set within the fortress itself. The Night Spectacular sound-and-light show projected onto the citadel walls is one of the most memorable experiences in the city. The rooftop views over the Old City are superb and the museum is well-curated for all ages.
