The Herzl Center
Jerusalem travel guideThe Herzl Center for Zionist Studies is a place where people can learn about Theodor Herzl, the man who created the Zionist ideology. The Center has programs that last from a few hours to a few days, and they are for people of all denominations who want to learn more about Zionism. The Center also has goals to create a bridge between the past and the present, and to pass Herzl’s legacy on to the younger generation.
Herzl was a Zionist thinker who believed that the Jewish people deserved their own land. 100 years later, his thoughts on Jewish identity, Anti-Semitism, and the relationship between Diaspora Jewry and Zionism are still relevant. Herzl’s final wish was to be buried in the “Land of Israel” which shows his belief in the future of the Jewish people.
