The Frenkel Frenel Museum is housed in a beautifully restored 19th-century building in Safed's artists' quarter. It features rotating exhibitions of paintings, sculptures, and mixed-media works by Israeli artists, with a focus on the vibrant Safed art scene. Visitors can explore multiple rooms filled with colorful canvases and contemporary pieces, often with the artist present.
