<\/p>

The Tower of David, the citadel of Jerusalem, contains within its massive walls, archaeological evidence that spans the entire history of Jerusalem – from fortifications dating to the First Temple Period through every era until the present day. That history is vast and complex, but the gallery presents it in a clear, engaging, and relatable way. Using projection mapping, video archives, a rich display of ancient and modern artifacts, and even digital games, it brings the story of the citadel to life and highlights the Tower of David as a lasting symbol of the city.<\/p>
