Nazareth Village, Open-air museum in Nazareth, Israel
The museum includes reconstructed buildings, terraced fields, wine presses, and olive presses that demonstrate agricultural practices from the first century.
Established in 2000 by EMMS Nazareth Hospital, the museum recreates daily life from the time period when Jesus lived in the Galilee region.
Staff members dressed in period clothing demonstrate traditional crafts, farming methods, and domestic activities that were common during ancient times.
Guided tours in multiple languages operate Monday through Saturday from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM, with advanced reservations recommended for group visits.
Visitors can participate in hands-on activities such as grinding wheat, pressing olives, and making pottery using authentic first-century techniques.
