Love in the Shadow of War: The Power of Love – Photographic Testimony
The photography exhibition
"Love in the Shadow of War"
, created for Tu B’Av, presents eight portraits of couples whose love stories blossomed amid the Swords of Iron War. Within a reality of fear, loss, and uncertainty, these couples found rare moments of closeness, connection, and love.
The exhibition is both a direct continuation of the Museum's permanent exhibition, “06:29 – From Darkness to Light” which shares the testimonies of 35 courageous women who survived the horrors of October 7th and also reflects the beginning of love and renewal.
Due to the security situation, the exhibition “Love in the Shadow of War” is closed until further notice.

The Vision
The Museum of Tolerance Jerusalem is located in the holy city of three major religions.
Dedicated to promoting
tolerance and human dignity, the museum shares lessons from world
history and universal Jewish values, while creating powerful dialogue between individuals from
all cultures and religions.
"An international Lighthouse for Human Dignity"
What we do
An "international embassy" for peace, the Museum of Tolerance Jerusalem strengthens Israel's reputation across the world, while building bridges between diverse cultures and religions.
Under our "open tent," individuals from all walks of life will gather and enact change based on shared universal values. Together, they will challenge racism, antisemitism, discrimination, stereotypes, hatred, and acts of verbal and physical violence – and create a better tomorrow.
The Building
The Museum of Tolerance Jerusalem is a place where individuals from across the world gather, converse openly, and feel at home.
With its four open walls that fill the space with light, visitors immediately feel welcomed and at ease. The museum is in the shape of a dove, representing its pursuit of peace and hope for a better future. The building's focal point is the monumental crisscrossed staircase, emphasizing that true tolerance and understanding come from engagement, listening to one another, and immersing ourselves in others' perspectives.
