Saba's Little Museum
Moshav Beit Meir, Jerusalem Hills054-570-8502In Saba's Little Museum you're going to see and hear wonderful things you didn't know before about the State of Israel. Come and enjoy a wonderful experience, where every artifact immediately becomes a special story. Join us, Saba Yaacov and Savta Debbie, as we travel back in time. We'll discover rare items, books and documents. The stories they have, tell us about personalities and events that shed light on the background leading to the establishment of the State of Israel and its early years.

Learn about people central to the nation's development, such as Herzl, Ben Gurion, Begin and Rabin will evoke new, personal & refreshing perspectives. The eras of the Patriarchs, the Turks and the British, World Wars 1 & 2, 1948 and the Six Day War will be brought to life. You'll meet the 1948 Armored Convoy Vehicle, the Vat from El AlMein , toys and house wares of times gone by, the Transit Camp, the Napoleonic Rifle and many more curious items.
Can you identify the items?
What were they used for? What does a cradle have to do with millstones? Herzl and the Shoemaker? Hens and reading glasses!? The Shabos Cat. Meet the Hasmonean we found on Pesach – and how it connects to the High Priest. New! From Holocaust to Revival : Talk & Tell with the Children of Kibbutz Kfar Giladi, 1940.
When you enter Saba's Little Museum you'll start off by connecting to the War of Independence: enjoy the moving experience of singing the signature song of the 1948 war - Bab-el-Wad - in its actual locale. We'll learn about the oath that Yitzhak Rabin vowed, right here, when he headed the Harel Brigade.
Housed in a former chicken run are many exhibits that interest everyone, young and old. We'll learn things we didn't know, for example why does milk boil over? And how was that problem solved? What's the difference between Jerusalemites and Tiberians? We'll learn about the Wonder Pot and hear more enchanting stories.
At Saba's Little Museum visitors enjoy opening up and telling their own stories which are added to the treasures weaved in this special venue, a place of laughter and sometimes of tears.
