Faith, Medicine, and Education before 1948

Step off the beaten path and into the layered history of Jerusalem’s HaNeviim and Shivtei Yisrael Streets—two of the city’s most fascinating and overlooked thoroughfares. Once the edge of the city, these streets became a magnet for foreign empires, religious orders, and visionary builders in the 19th and early 20th centuries. On this tour, we’ll uncover stories of tucked behind stone walls, healing institutions founded by missionaries, and elegant mansions that once housed diplomats, doctors, and dreamers. Along the way, you’ll see how faith, politics, and architecture came together to shape the city we know today.
