Jewish Diaspora Museum Beit Hatfutsot

The Museum of the Jewish Diaspora tells all about the history of the Jewish people and their life in different countries for 2,500 years. All expositions can leave an indelible mark in the heart and mind of the visitor: dioramas, documentary newsreels, audiovisual performances, multimedia and computer presentations.

The museum was opened in May 1978. At the time, it was considered one of the most innovative museums in the world. The idea of establishing the museum belonged to Naum Goldman, the founder and president of the World Jewish Congress. He sought to create a monument to the Jewish diaspora, reflecting its past and present.

The museum is open from Sunday to Friday, but on different days the time of the museum is different: from Sunday to Tuesday, as well as on Thursday, the museum is glad to see visitors from 10 to 4 hours, on Wednesday from 10 to 6 hours, and on Friday from 9 to 1 p.m. The museum is located on the campus of Tel Aviv University in Ramat Aviv.
