Oberster Gerichtshof
Die Mühlen der Justiz mahlen langsam, was vielleicht erklärt, warum es mehr als 40 Jahren dauerte, bis der Oberste Gerichtshof Israels von dem Russischen Viertel in sein Zuhause zog. Der Obersten Gerichtshof wurde im Jahr 1992 von der Familie Rothschild und Mann-Frau-Architekten-Duo Ram und Ada Carmi gebaut. Eines der dominierenden Motive des neuen Gerichtshofes ist der Himmel, der fast immer sichtbar ist durch eine Reihe von Fenstern und Oberlichtern. In der Eingangshalle gibt es auch eine Treppe nach oben, als Symbol für Aspiration der Erde für die göttliche Gerechtigkeit, trotz Gesetz. Das Museum des Obersten Gerichtshofs zeigt eine vielfältige Sammlung und bietet eine Video-Präsentation, die das Innenleben des Gerichts erklärt. Und wenn Sie daran interessiert sind, die Justiz in Aktion zu sehen, sind Sie herzlich eingeladen, an einer Sitzung teilzunehmen.

MoreAfter strolling around the grounds surrounding this impressive structure, we joined the daily 11 AM free guided tour in Hebrew. (There is also one in English at 12.) Besides my friend and me, our group was totally composed of young women on maternity leave. I have run into this phenomenon at other sites in Jerusalem so was not surprised by the baby carriages. Their presence set the tone for the entire tour. At the end, our guide bade farewell to the nursing mothers and took us two for a special treat: the courtyard of arches that echoes lines and details of the Alhambra's courtyard of lions which I have never seen but know from art books. Especially with all the babies and a fantastic guide, this tour was very worthwhile.

The visit is free and interesting. Every day at 11:00 there's a guided tour in hebrew and at 12:00 in english. The building is beautiful and the architecture is meaningful- past vs. Present, outdoor vs. Indoor, and lines vs. Cyrcle. You can visit the court room during a hearing, you can walk through the...

The building is beautiful and the architecture is meaningful- past vs. Present, outdoor vs. Indoor, and lines vs. Cyrcle. You can visit the court room during a hearing, you can walk through the library and do not miss the little museum describing the evolution of the hebrew law since the bible period till today. You can walk to the rose garden and you see the kneset in view. Totaly worth it.

MoreWent here last Sunday at 12 pm English tour & if you get off the tram/light rail at the most close stop, it is a 20 nis taxi to the door. It is quite hard to hear the guide as she does not wear a speaker, so u have to stay close to her to hear plus the acoustic in the bldg/echos doesn’t help. She ends the tour in a real live supreme court trial -u go in a few at a time but it is in Hebrew. Good, clean bathrooms included:)
