The story of the Palmach, from its establishment in 1941 until the end of the Arab–Israeli War of 1948, is the focus of this multimedia museum. Starting in a memorial hall for Palmach members who died fighting for the establishment of the State of Israel, a Hebrew-speaking guide takes visitors on a tour that focuses on the stories of individual members who fought with this elite Haganah strike force. Headphones provide translations into other languages.
