Ariel Center is a humble size visitor center devoted to Jerusalem’s history and archaeology during the period of the Old Testament. It presents a model of Jerusalem in biblical times  with a unique multi-screen video presentation leading you through its history. A figure-playing prophet, Jeremiah, reviews the city, and laments its Babylonian destruction. An educational presentation to the town in the time of the Bible is set at another hall, with a local guide.

Ariel center is a great destination to learn about Jerusalem during Solomon’s time in a fun and exciting way. It is especially suitable for small groups.

Visiting Ariel Center

The Center is open every day, but it is best to set the visit in advance, especially if you are a group.

It is best to combine the visit with a day tour of Jerusalem, and/or a visit to the City of David.
