The museum has an impressive art collection and incredible antiques. It is a short walk north of the Old City's Jaffa Gate.

The Jewish Art and Life wing houses an alluring display of Jewish art and representations of Jewish life. One of the prized exhibits are the reconstructed Synanagogues from different parts of the world.
