Yad La'Shiryon

   

The Latrun Police
Building

This building was built in 1943 to serve as a British police station and prison for members of Jewish underground organizations (Haganah, Etzel, and Lehi) during the British Mandate. In order to preserve its authentic character, the scars from bullets and shells, and the Arabic writing on the walls, were left as is.
