Tolerance Monument

Tolerance Monument, Cenotaph monument in Jerusalem, Israel

The Tolerance Monument is a bronze sculpture about 17 metres tall, made of two halves of a broken column with a gilded olive tree rising between them. It stands on a hill near Goldman Promenade, between the Jewish neighbourhood of Armon HaNetziv and the Arab neighbourhood of Jabel Mukaber, just outside the UN headquarters. It was designed by Polish sculptor Czesław Dźwigaj with Michal Kubiak and assembled in Israel from parts made in Poland.

Designed by Polish sculptor Czesław Dźwigaj with Michał Kubiak, the monument was funded by businessman Aleksander Gudzowaty to promote peace in the Israeli–Palestinian conflict. It was built in Poland, shipped to Israel in sections and assembled under the artist's supervision. It was inaugurated on 15 September 2008 in the presence of former Polish president Lech Wałęsa and about 50 mayors from around the world; in February 2009 a rainstorm damaged it.

The monument displays inscriptions in English, Hebrew, and Arabic, marking the boundary between the neighboring Jewish and Arab communities. These writings help visitors understand the shared story and division of the place.

The monument stands on the hill between Armon HaNetziv and Jabel Mukaber, beside the UN headquarters and reached from Goldman Promenade. It is set within the public Tolerance Garden, planned by architect Shlomo Aronson, whose "Tolerance Wall" is engraved with the names of peoples, cities and bodies that endorsed the idea. The bronze was made in Poland, shipped in parts and assembled on site under the sculptor's supervision.

The monument stands about 17 metres tall and was made of bronze in Poland, then shipped to Israel in pieces and assembled on site under the sculptor's supervision. Its construction and the surrounding garden cost around 1.5 million dollars.
