105 Hebrew Union College

Architects: Heinz Rau, 1963; Moshe Safdie, 1985

Come and see Jerusalem architecture at its best. The compound boasts of a modernist building designed by Heinz Rau and a later wing added by Moshe Safdie. The building consists of a succession of small structures that surround inner courtyards, offering their own interpretation of the traditional Jerusalem structure. The compound serves a seminary where rabbis, cantors and educators from the Reform Judaism Movement in Israel and overseas receive training. It also houses an archaeological museum, a library, a multifaith prayer room, and a synagogue. The visits will start with a 10-minute overview, followed by tours of the building and courtyard.

Entry for vehicles with handicap parking permits should be arranged in advance.
