Houses From Within, Jerusalem is an annual event taking place each Autumn in which, for one weekend, over 100 buildings across Jerusalem open their doors to the public. The participating buildings range from public institutions such as government buildings, cultural venues, and museums, to private homes and offices from every architectural period and style conceivable. At some venues, guided tours take place, whilst in others the doors are literally opened for the public to explore. In 2021, Open House Jerusalem (known in Hebrew as Batim Mibifnim) will be on the weekend of November 18-20.
The weekend event features dozens of architectural tours, some from a historical point of view, and others from a technological or social and activist aspect allowing participants to explore the city in a deep and unique way while celebrating its urban life.
Walking tours discussing the development and history of many of the city’s neighborhoods will also take place, whilst many tours will focus on architecture, archaeology, and preservation of the Old City, and other historic sites in Jerusalem.
For a full list of events and buildings taking place, see the Open House website. Also, bear in mind that most tours will be conducted in Hebrew and there may not be English translation available. Please inquire directly for further information.
