This review concerns the English language tour, which was the only way we were allowed to view the museum. Self-guided tours were not an option. The museum consists of roughly six different videos that a tour guide leads you to. You sit and watch the videos (translation provided by electronic audio guide) and then the tour guide ushers you along to the next. We were not permitted to stop and examine the signage and reading material, even though there were English language placards. The guide stopped to ask for questions twice, though he only answered one each time before telling us we had to keep moving.

The videos, while informative, were nothing you could not glean from a biography or documentary. The museum has a few notable artifacts, though you won’t be given much time to examine them. Overall, this was a lackluster experience compared to the many other excellent museum experiences in Jerusalem.
