Since 1993, Safra Square has been the location of the
Jerusalem municipality complex. It is a far cry from the
city’s original municipality, which was built in 1867,
during the Ottoman period. The complex is comprised of
nine historic buildings and three new ones.
Every Monday, guided tours (for individuals) are
conducted. Tours in English are at 9:30 AM, while the
Hebrew, tours are at 9:00 AM.
The city’s tourism office is located in the
municipality’s plaza, so it is a good place to stop by
and pick up current information.
Cost of the tour is 10 NIS/pp. Tours depart from the
palm tree area in the main
plaza.
Organized groups should arrange reservations, by
calling, 02/625-5981.
