Beit Hameiri

The museum contains nine exhibition spaces within a three-story stone building, displaying artifacts that represent daily Jewish life through the centuries.

The ground floor rooms date back to the 16th century and include a ritual bath that once collected rainwater during winter seasons.

The museum exhibits religious objects, tools, photographs, and paintings that document the traditions of Jewish families who lived in Safed.

Located at 158 Keren Hayesod Street, the museum operates from Sunday through Thursday between 8:30 AM and 2:30 PM with reduced hours on Fridays.

A large fig tree has grown through the walls of the ancient ritual bath, integrating natural elements with the historical structure.
