Jerusalem’s iconic citadel has opened its revamped museum after a three-year, $50 million makeover that included a restoration of its signature minaret.
May 29, 2023 GMTA woman walks at the inner courtyard of the Tower of David Museum, in Jerusalem's Old City, after a three-year renovation project, Monday, May 22, 2023. The tower, an ancient fortress on the western edge of the Old City, contains remnants of successive fortifications built one atop the other dating back over two millennia.
The museum launched its overhaul in the midst of the 2020 coronavirus pandemic, when foreign tourists could not enter Israel and visitor numbers had plummeted. The museum’s ambitious new permanent exhibitions — mixing multimedia displays with artifacts — have advanced the visitor experience to the 21st century, while a restored late 19th-century scale model of Jerusalem designed for the 1873 Vienna World’s Fair adds some throwback flair.
It makes scant mention of Jordan’s control of east Jerusalem, including the Old City, from 1949 until Israel captured it in the 1967 Mideast war.
