Beit Yitzhak Ben Zvi, Heritage house in Rehavia, Jerusalem, Israel

The house features traditional early 20th-century architectural elements, with a simple design that reflects the modest lifestyle of Israel's second president.

Built in 1925, this residence served as the home of Yitzhak Ben-Zvi, who became the second President of Israel and remained in office until 1963.

The house contains archives and exhibitions displaying historical artifacts that document the development of Israeli governance and Jewish communities research.

Tours of the house require advance reservations and operate Sunday through Thursday from 9:00 to 17:00, with shorter hours on Fridays and holidays.

The original residential hut was relocated from Jerusalem to Kibbutz Beit Keshet in 1952 as a memorial for Ben-Zvi's son Eli, who died defending the kibbutz.
