“Welcome to Jerusalem”, designed by Kossmann.dejong, revisits millennia of the Holy City's history

“Visitors are introduced to the story of Jerusalem through a special soundscape while entering the first floor. The story is told from different but interwoven perspectives: the city as a holy place for the three monotheistic religions for two thousand years and the city as a political battle field between power and territory.”

Certain sections of the exhibition feature immersive film experiences, such as the 360-degree film installation dedicated to “Conflicts” (created by Tungsten Pro / Martin Grootenboer). The “Augmented Temple” installation by ART+COM combines AR films and projections on a large-scale model of a temple, as if to "bring the destroyed Jewish temples of Temple Mount back to life".

Another can't-miss feature is the documentary “24 Hours Jerusalem” by Berlin film director Volker Heise. The film offers a personal encounter with local residents of different ages, religions, and political background.

“Welcome to Jerusalem” will be on display until April 30, 2019.
