In June 2023, the Tower of David (whose unique mission is to share the incomparable story of Jerusalem) completed a $50 million renovation – 10 years in the planning, 3 years in the execution. This short video will give you a sense of the magnitude and magnificence of the renovation and the site.
With the war, and the dramatic drop-off in tourism, the Tower of David is offering a virtual tour of the Museum to strengthen bonds between the Diaspora and Israel, to share a taste of theMuseum experience (and encourage future visits), to learn about and “virtually” experience the incomparable city of Jerusalem and to generate support for the museum’s current work with displaced families.
Guided from Israel by Eric Mattenson, a licensed Israel Tour Guide and member of the guiding staff at the Tower of David, followed by a Q&A session and further details on the Tower of David, you will see exclusive materials straight from the Museum’s exhibition: multimedia, films, original artifacts, and a 360° panoramic view of Jerusalem as it is seen from the rooftop of the citadel. The presentation explores Jerusalem’s 4,000-year history and focuses particularly on understanding the origin stories of its holiness to the three Abrahamic religions.
$10 per person charge; includes lunch.
This is a virtual tour LIVE AT Anshe Emet.
