Golan Archaeological Museum

The Golan Archaeological Museum is a museum in Katzrin that displays a large collection of artifacts, architectural fragments, and ancient objects found throughout the Golan Heights region. The exhibitions help visitors understand the area's past through various items and discoveries.

The museum holds important evidence from the Great Jewish Revolt, including coins minted during the siege of Gamla by Roman forces. These finds help document the turbulent ancient history of the region.

The museum displays carved stone pieces from 32 Byzantine synagogues with ancient Jewish symbols and Aramaic writing, reflecting how people in the region practiced their faith.

The museum is easiest to reach from the Merkaz Eitan commercial area, as it is a short walk away. It is helpful to check opening hours in advance since they vary on certain days of the week.

The museum displays a detailed model of Rujum Al Hiri, a 4500-year-old Stone Age structure that visitors can examine in close detail. The model helps people understand the shape and scale of this mysterious ancient construction found on the plateaus.
