RESTORATION 

AND RECLAMATION DEPARTMENT

Protection of Jerusalem's historical heritage site is vital to preserving the character of the city but more important still is the need to preserve the living stones.  Palestinian inhabitants in the Old City are often forced to live in substandard conditions due to the lack of funds and capacity to properly restore their, often ancient, living structures. 

The Restoration and Reclamation Department works to restore and renovate properties in the Old City with a particular focus on raising the living standard of Palestinian Jerusalmites while preserving the historic character of their buildings.  Together with local partners and initiatives, this Department raises the funds necessary and contributes engineering experties to carry out renovation projects in the Old City.
