The Herodian Quarter, Underground archaeological museum in Jewish Quarter, Jerusalem, Israel.
The Herodian Quarter contains five residential buildings with stone tables, earthenware dishes, and wine flasks from the Second Temple period.
Archaeological excavations after the Six Day War uncovered this neighborhood, which remained inhabited until Jerusalem's destruction in 70 CE.
Multiple ritual baths and a detailed menorah engraving on walls reflect the religious practices of priests who resided in these grand mansions.
The museum operates from Sunday through Thursday between 10:00 AM and 6:00 PM, with guided tours lasting approximately one hour.
A modern Yeshiva built above the archaeological site combines preservation of ancient findings with current educational activities.
