Yitzhak Rabin Center — Attraction in Tel-Aviv

The Yitzhak Rabin Center is a museum and research center in Tel Aviv, Israel, dedicated to the memory of assassinated Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin. It was designed by Israeli architect Moshe Safdie and opened in November 2005, on the tenth anniversary of Rabin's assassination.

The museum is located on a hill overlooking Hayarkon Park and Tel Aviv, near the Eretz Israel Museum, the Palmach Museum, Tel Aviv University and Beth Hatefutsoth. The center includes a library, archives, research center, museum, and auditorium.

The museum's permanent exhibition tells the story of Rabin's life and career, from his childhood in Jerusalem to his assassination. The exhibition includes photographs, documents, and artifacts from Rabin's life, as well as interactive displays and multimedia presentations.

The center also offers a variety of educational programs, including lectures, workshops, and tours. The center is open to the public and is free of charge.

The Yitzhak Rabin Center is a significant institution in Israel and around the world. It is a place to learn about Rabin's life and legacy, and to promote peace...

Good exposition, but the solid experience is butchered by the movie at the end (a new-ish addition). The whole idea of this centre serves one purpose: to be the message of peace. It tells the visitors the story of people who don't want to live in war. The creators of the museum kept very respectful stance about history. They told both good and bad about their politicians and military, because with honesty there could be a dialogue, the way to peaceful coexistence. ...But then you can watch a documentary about the Six-Day War, with CG explosions and super-fast cuts. At this speed it's not informative at all, and simply states "our enemies lost a lot of people and we lost only a few, hooray!" Why does it here? It absolutely contradicts the intended message...

The center is a museum dedicated to the life of the assassinated Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin. The entry was ₪50 including the audio guide, which mine was glitchy.

Every staff member that I encountered starting from the security gate on was either rude, indifferent, or demeaning. The person that was doing the guided tour, which I was not apart of, was so loud that I could not hear my headset over his obnoxious voice.

The museum itself is well planned out with mediocre curating that included propaganda reels and replicas. There was a lot of audio and video of Rabin and the sitting room of his home, as it was on the day of his murder. I also liked the timeline of historic global events juxtaposed in parallel to the events that were shaping Isreal...
