Mahmoud Darwish museum

The museum features exhibition halls, video rooms, and a library containing manuscripts, personal belongings, and literary works of Palestinian poet Mahmoud Darwish.

The institution opened its doors in August 2012, following a presidential decree issued four years earlier by Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas.

The museum building, designed by Palestinian architect Jafar Tuqan, incorporates plants from various Palestinian cities and represents an open book with two covers.

The museum includes a 500-seat outdoor Greek-style theater, multiple function rooms, and the Galilee Hall for hosting literary events and activities.

The garden surrounding the museum spans 9,000 square meters atop a hill overlooking Jerusalem and contains the final resting place of the poet.
