    Place looks nice but it shows no historical information or facts or archeology. Just a statue with the number 67 and a few old clothes. Where's all of the Balestinian history? Is that all of yours history of your Glorious nation ?

    The space is excquisitely curated. The current exhibit is on embroidery, it's history, regional differences as well as its role in Palestinian life and struggle. The other amazing part is the garden. Absolutely beautiful.

    Honestly one of the most beautiful places I’ve ever been to in west bank, it’s huge, peaceful and beautiful. People who work there are very nice and helpful. Would definitely visit again.. although I didn’t take much photos as they kinda didn’t alow it but it was an experience to remember

    The Palestinian Museum was designed as a transnational institution, capable of overcoming geographical and political boundaries to reach Palestinians within historic Palestine and beyond. Its digital collections and online platforms, alongside its network of local and international partnerships, will allow for the sharing of skills, resources, programmes and exhibitions with individuals and institutions worldwide.

The Palestinian Museum is a Swiss-registered non-governmental association with a branch in Palestine (currently undergoing official of registration).

    (Translated by Google) The museum is any permanent residence for community service and development, open to the public, by collecting, preserving, researching, communicating and displaying human heritage and its development for purposes of education, study and entertainment, as defined by the World Council of Museums. There are tens of thousands of museums around the world interested in collecting things of scientific, artistic, or historical value, and making them available to the public through exhibitions that may be permanent or temporary. The Arabic Encyclopedia defined it as "a home for preserving ancient monuments, rare artifacts, masterpieces of sculptures, art paintings, and everything related to cultural heritage. The museum may include scientific or artistic works, and information on history and technology. (Original) المتحف هو أي مقر دائم من أجل خدمة المجتمع وتطويره ، مفتوح للعامة ، بجمع ، وحفظ ، وبحث ، وتواصل وعرض التراث الإنساني وتطوره ، لأغراض التعليم ، والدراسة والترفيه ، كما عرّفه المجلس العالمي للمتاحف. وهناك عشرات الآف من المتاحف في جميع أنحاء العالم تهتم بجمع أشياء ذات قيمة علمية ، وفنية ، أو ذات أهمية تاريخية ، وتجعلها متاحة للجمهور من خلال المعارض التي قد تكون دائمة أو مؤقتة. عرَّفته الموسوعة العربية بأنه "دار لحفظ الآثار القديمة ، والتحف النادرة ، وروائع المنحوتات اللوحات الفنية ، وكل ما يتصل بالتراث الحضاري ، وقد يضم المتحف أعمالاً علمية أو أعمالاً فنية ، ومعلومات عن التاريخ والتقنية

    The most spectacular views of sunset with the beautiful landscaped grounds. The first exhibit "LONG LIVE JERUSALEM" is a must see!

    Nice place, plenty of parking, cheap tickets, no waiting time, not crowded, cafeteria available, nice little gift shop and a clean bathrooms, the museum itself is small and can be finished in 2 hours at most, but it is surrounded by a beautiful garden. I recommend visiting it.

    Beautiful museum. Worth the visit for the garden alone many art works and exhibitions related to Palestine and the Nakba when I visited but they have different artists displayed through the year so returning again. Nice gift shop that supports local artisans.

  • 1/5 Alexia V. 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Very beautiful building, but then .... everything is void of history. Arafat was Egyptian .... no great leader was Palestinian because this people never existed. The Muslims of Judee and Samaria are either Syrians or Jordanians. Gaza Muslims are mostly Egyptian .... and hate each other .... their only common point is hatred of Jews and the Jewish state .... The museum is void of history because they have no history. (Original) Tres beau Batiment, mais en-suite .... tout est vide d histoire. Arafat était égyptien.... aucun grand leader n était palestinien car ce peuple n a jamais existé. Les musulmans de Judee et samarie sont soit syriens soit jordaniens. Les musulmans de gaza sont majoritairement égyptiens.... et entre eux ils se détestent.... leur seul point commun est la haine des juifs et de l état juif.... Le musée est vide d histoire car ils n’ont pas d’histoire.

    Great starting point establishing the existence of Palestinians, as a people and complex society, throughout Palestine before and since the Zionist colonial project attempting to erase them.
