The Palmach Museum sits on Chaim Levanon Street in Tel Aviv, in the Tel Aviv District of Israel. It is devoted to the Palmach, the elite fighting force of the pre-state Jewish community, and to the story of the independence fighters who served in it.
What the visit is like
The museum is interactive, and it leans on multimedia presentations to tell its story. For a visitor, this means the history is approached through screens, sound and moving images rather than only through static displays. It suits people who want to understand the Palmach as a human story as well as a military one, and it works well for those who prefer a guided, narrative way of learning about a period of history.
