Givati Museum

During the War of Independence (1948), Egyptian forces captured the British police station known as "the monster" and now called Metzudat Yoav. On their seventh attempt, the station was taken by the newly organized Givati brigade.

The fortress has become a museum, and the guides are active-duty soldiers from the Givati brigade.
