Hansen's hospital - past and present
Situated in what today is one of Jerusalem’s most affluent neighborhoods is an architectural treasure: the hansen hospital which appears on the list of buildings intended for preservation under the auspices of the society for preservation of Israel heritage sites (t.b.a [city building plan] 2097).

Established in 1887 by the city’s protestant community as the Jesus Hilfe Asyl (jesus help asylum), it was designed by conrad schick, a german missionary and self-taught architect. The spacious two-story building was set in a large, walled compound containing four water cisterns, a vegetable garden, fruit trees and livestock, and was designed to be self-sufficient. Each floor had access to its own toilet via a bridge.

The Memorial Museum Of Hungarian Speaking Jewry
Tucked away in a small garden opposite the Yigal Allon Cultural Center, you will find one of the hidden gems of Safed. A museum dedicated to the lost communities of Hungarian Jewry.

Hungarian Jewish Life
Jews lived in Hungary for over 1000 years until the community was devastated and destroyed in 1944 during the Holocaust. However, despite this devastation, the Museum is dedicated to the life and times of Jews in pre-war Hungary, as well as to the community's resistance during the Occupation, and focuses very little on the destruction of the community.
