Haifa - Dagon Silo

The most striking of the port installations of Haifa are a 10,000 ton floating dock and the Dagon Silo, a grain elevator 68m/223ft high with a capacity of 100,000 tons. On the ground floor of the silo is a Grain Museum opened in 1955 (conducted visits). This presents a general survey of grain storage and processing; the oldest exhibits are millstones and other items from Jericho dating from the eighth millennium B.C.
