Villa Harun ar-Rashid, Historical villa in Talbiyya neighborhood, Jerusalem, Israel
Villa Harun ar-Rashid features distinct architectural elements from the 1920s, incorporating local design traditions with influences from international building styles.
Built in 1926 by Hanna Bisharat, the villa was taken over during the 1948 Arab-Israeli War and later housed Israeli officials, including Golda Meir.
The villa bears the name of Caliph Harun al-Rashid, reflecting the multicultural heritage of Jerusalem through its architectural design and historical significance.
Located at 20 David Marcus Street in West Jerusalem, the villa has been converted into multiple residential units accessible through organized architectural tours.
The original name of the villa was removed from its facade under specific instructions, yet traces of the inscription remain visible on the building.
