Postal and philately museum

The Postal and Philately Museum will tell you a lot about all the historical, social and state changes in Israel. The museum uses modern audiovisual means, so you can learn everything about the history of postal development, starting from the middle of the XIX century and ending with the formation of the modern state of Israel.

The museum opened on May 19, 1998 as part of the anniversary celebrations in Israel. It was founded by the Israeli Postal Administration, the Tel Aviv Foundation and the Eretz Israel Museum.

The museum is divided into three main sections, telling about the history of the post in chronological order. Visitors can learn about postal communication through the computer game "Journey of Writing". On the first floor of the museum, temporary exhibitions are held in a special section. On the same floor there is also a library, an exhibition of valuable and rare stamps, a lecture hall and a room for children.

The museum is open to the public from Sunday to Thursday from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m., and on Friday and Saturday from 10 to 2 p.m.
