Situated in the renovated historical Town Hall of Tel Aviv, Beit Ha’ir is both a museum presenting aspects in the history of Tel Aviv and a cultural center showcasing a variety of exhibitions

Beit Ha’ir (Hebrew for Town Hall) is located in a newly renovated historical building that used to serve as Tel Aviv’s town hall in the past and overlooks the charming Bialik Square at present (the square and the buildings around it have been declared a historic site by UNESCO). In Beit Ha’ir you will find a permanent exhibition focusing on the life and work of Meir Dizengoff, Tel Aviv’s first mayor, alongside temporary photo and art exhibitions that seek to debate different aspects of the city. An especially intriguing part of Beit Ha’ir is the virtual display room, where visitors can explore Tel Aviv’s timeline, read rare documents and watch a selection of documentary films made on Tel Aviv.
Beit Ha’ir is only a minute away from Bialik's House and the Rubin Museum and a visit to all three (with a lunch break or coffee at Café Bialik on the corner, perhaps) could easily and pleasantly fill half a day.
