The other, main building of the Etzel Museum stands on King George Street and tells the story of the formation of Etzel, while Etzel House, or Beit Gidi, is illustrating the organisation's underground activities.[1] The original stone house was built in 1900, toward the end of the Ottoman period, by a Jew.[4] It is one of the very few leftovers from the predominantly Arab district of Manshiya (Arabic name), sometimes mentioned in Israel as Menashiya, that was in part destroyed during the 1948 battles.[1] The ruins of the house are now built over by a glass structure, the resulting building being surrounded on three sides by the Charles Clore Park, with its fourth side facing the seafront.[1]
