Revival from the Ashes Tour

“Rising from the Ashes” Center

In memory of Alejandro Weinstein Karnovitz

A new exhibition that burns itself into the memory.

The exhibition presents the story of the Israel Antiquities Authority during the Iron Swords War, as an organization that operated in a scene of modern destruction using archaeological tools.

Visitors embark on a moving emotional journey and are exposed to the perspective of families who brought a painful closure to their relationships with their loved ones thanks to the work of archaeologists, who enlisted in an unfathomable project.

Through three-dimensional models of the destruction sites, the unprecedented documentation project of the destruction sites in the Gaza border area is also presented, along with the stories of those who documented it.

The tour begins on the mosaic rooftop of the National Archaeology Campus, which displays mosaic floors containing stories more than 1,500 years old, followed by a visit to the “Rising from the Ashes” exhibition.

The tour takes place daily, in a group, accompanied by professional and sensitive guidance.
