- Independence Hall website, January 29, 2017:Museum info (Independence Hall or known as Beit Haatzmaut is housed in one of Tel Aviv's first buildings, on the plot of land on which the drawing of lots took place in April, 1909. The specific lot of land was drawn by the city's first mayor, Meir Dizengoff. In 1930, he founded an art museum in his home in his wife's memory. The building served as the Tel Aviv Museum until 1971 when it moved to its new location. On the 5th of Iyar 5708, May 14, 1948, members of the Provisional State Council assembled in the museum and declared the establishment of the State of Israel. In 1978, on the 30th anniversary of the State of Israel, a scroll was signed which announced the establishment of Heichal Haatzmaut (Independence Hall ) Museum, under the sponsorship of the Eretz-Israel Museum, Tel Aviv. In 2010, a program for planning, restoring and preserving Beit Haatzmaut and turning it into a national museum was initiated. The building is managed by the Tel Aviv Municipality through the Eretz-Israel Museum, Tel Aviv).

Wikipedia description:
Independence Hall, originally the Dizengoff House (Hebrew: בית דיזנגוף), is a history museum and the site of the signing of Israel's Declaration of Independence. It is located on the historic Rothschild Boulevard in Tel Aviv, Israel. It was originally built as the home of Meir Dizengoff and his wife Zina. Dizengoff later entrusted architect Carl Rubin to redesign the building in the International Style. Dizengoff gifted the building to the Tel Aviv-Yafo Municipality, and it housed the Tel Aviv Museum of Art from 1932 to 1971. It is currently a museum dedicated to the signing of the Israeli Declaration of Independence and the history of Tel Aviv; as of 2024 it is closed to the public for renovations.
