Israel Defense Forces History Museum

The Israel Defense Forces History Museum contains an extensive collection of military artifacts, including vehicles, weapons, uniforms, and personal items from different periods.

Founded in 1959, the museum documents the transformation from underground organizations during the British Mandate period to the present-day Israel Defense Forces structure.

The museum serves as a research center for military history scholars while providing educational programs that explain the role of military service in Israeli society.

Located near the former Jaffa Railway Station in southern Tel Aviv, the museum offers guided tours and maintains archives accessible to researchers and visitors.

The museum is relocating to Latrun to expand its exhibition space and create new interactive displays that will present military strategies and operations.
