Summer at Museums: Haifa Train Museum.

Visiting museums is one of the highly recommended activities for summer breaks.
Museums are both entertaining and edifying, and kids like to explore every corner of it.


Train Museum in Haifa presents history of trains in Israel. It is full of primary sources.

This cattle car made me shiver when I pictured Jewish people being forced away from their homes and transported by freight trains in Europe after1933.














We discovered two walls of train tickets and ID cards of people working in the Israeli train system in all times.

The notice of the right that warns citizens not to take fruit and vegetable south of Zichron Yaakov lead us to a mini puzzle solving about the place of our home town.
