The museum houses one of the largest collections of Jewish artists from the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Alongside an extensive collection of Israeli art and Judaica objects from around the world.
The museum building is a magnificent piece of modernist architecture, which is based entirely on natural lighting (designed by the architect Shmuel Bickles 1909 – 1975).
Fourteen – ten wide and high exhibition halls, magical inner courtyards and a special and attractive atmosphere, which is an inspiration to world-renowned architects. In the museum, there are frequent training sessions for the audience, in the exhibitions, on the history and on the subject of architecture.
