Beit Aharonson, Historical museum in Zikhron Ya'akov, Israel

The museum occupies the former residence of the Aharonson family, displaying documents, photographs, and artifacts related to the NILI intelligence organization.

During World War I, the building served as the headquarters for NILI, a Jewish spy network that provided crucial intelligence about Ottoman forces to British authorities.

The museum presents the story of early Jewish settlement in Palestine through exhibitions focusing on agricultural development and resistance movements.

Located at 40 Ha-Meyasdim Street, the museum opens Sunday through Thursday from 9:00 to 14:45 and Fridays from 9:00 to 12:00.

The site contains the room where Sarah Aaronson, a key member of NILI, took her final actions before being captured by Ottoman forces.
