The Samaritan Museum, Ethnographic museum on Mount Gerizim, Nablus, Palestinian Territories.

The Samaritan Museum is an ethnographic museum on Mount Gerizim in Nablus that displays exhibits spanning thousands of years of Samaritan heritage. The collection includes ancient manuscripts, religious texts, and artifacts that document the cultural legacy of this community.

The Samaritan Museum was founded in 1997 on the summit of Mount Gerizim, in the Samaritan village of Luza near Nablus. In 2010 the Palestinian Ministry of Tourism and Antiquities, working with UNESCO, rehabilitated it, improving how the collection is displayed and making room for wall panels and explanatory material. It is run by the priest Hosni al-Samiri.

The museum displays religious texts, traditional garments, and ceremonial objects that reflect the distinct practices of the Samaritan community. Visitors can observe how this group maintains its identity through everyday items and sacred objects.

The museum is located on Mount Gerizim and is best visited by arranging a visit in advance, as guided tours are offered in multiple languages. Visitors should plan ahead and be prepared for the elevation and mountainous terrain.

The museum is the only institution worldwide dedicated exclusively to preserving and presenting Samaritan culture. Here visitors can see the ancient Samaritan language and its written documents, rarely accessible elsewhere.
