Museum Treasures in the Walls

The museum occupies curved spaces within the northeastern walls of Old Acre, displaying collections of traditional crafts and daily life objects from the Galilee region.

Built approximately 200 years ago by Ottoman ruler Al-Jazar, the structure initially served as Burj Al-Commander military base for soldiers guarding cannon positions.

The museum presents reconstructions of market stores and workshops, including leather workers, carpenters, blacksmiths, and hat makers from the 19th and 20th centuries.

Located at 2 Weizmann Street, the museum operates daily from 10:00 to 16:30, offering guided tours in Hebrew and English through advance booking.

The exhibition halls contain hundreds of items collected by Dan Hortman and Michael Luria, including furniture, vessels, clocks, and tools from regional artisans.
