About 50m south of City Hall, the Davidka Memorial recalls the role played by the home-made, notoriously inaccurate Davidka mortar in sowing panic among the Arab population, possibly because of rumours that its incredibly loud 40kg warhead was an atomic bomb. About 3km to the left, a free audio guide tells the dramatic tale of the battle for Tsfat in 1947 and 1948 – from the Israeli perspective, of course.
Across the street is the former British police station , riddled with bulletholes from 1948, which is now used by the Tsfat Academic College.
