The Davidson Center

An archaeological park and museum near the Western Wall at the foot of the Temple Mount in Jerusalem's Old City. The site spans approximately 5,000 years of history from the Canaanite Bronze Age through the Second Temple period. Notable discoveries include a wide pilgrimage street near the Western Wall, the Temple's staircase, ritual immersion baths, and a drainage channel containing artifacts from the destruction of Jerusalem. The renovated center features a 3D model of ancient Jerusalem and interactive galleries exploring the theme of the Temple City.
