Safed - Israeli Bible Museum

On the north side of the hill in the center of Safed, in a house built in the second half of the 19th century as the residence of a Turkish pasha, is the Israeli Bible Museum, founded in 1985 on the initiative of the Jewish-American artist Philip Ratner. It displays hundreds of his paintings and works of sculpture representing scenes from the Bible, together with works by the painter and sculptor Enrico Glicenstein (1870-1942).
