The '''Center for Human Dignity''' is the [[Simon Wiesenthal Center]]-planned [[Museum of Tolerance]] in the [[Mamilla]] neighbourhood of [[Jerusalem]], [[Israel]]. The construction of the approximately 200-million dollar Museum began in [[June 2005]] and was expected to be finished in [[2007]], but after it was discovered that the building site was located over an ancient [[Islam|Muslim]] burial site, its construction was frozen by a [[Supreme Court of Israel|Supreme Court]] order issued on [[February 2006]]. <ref name="Walla!">[http://news.walla.co.il/?w=//863929 "Supreme Court freezes construction of Tolerance Museum"], ''[[Walla!]]'', [[February 23]], [[2006]] {{he icon}}</ref>

==Design==
|-
The Center, designed by [[Frank Gehry]], is to include a museum, a theater, a conference hall, a library, and an educational center. The design of the Center is seen as unique for [[Israel]] and, as such, had seen many opponents and proponents. It is noted for its unusual amorphic shape as well as its [[glass]] and [[titanium]] coating, similar to the [[Guggenheim Museum Bilbao]].

==Support and criticism==
|-
Those who are in favour of the Center, including [[List of mayors of Jerusalem|Jerusalem Mayor]] [[Uri Lupolianski]], maintain that it will bring tourists to the city, while its opponents (excluding the Muslim grave site objection), argue that it will stand out and draw attention away from the traditional architecture of neighbouring streets and that of the city, in general.

==Court-ordered mediation==
|-
The Muslim groups who initiated the legal action which resulted in the Supreme Court order to freeze all construction, have been undergoing [[mediation]] with representatives of the Center. Former Supreme Court president [[Meir Shamgar]] serves as mediator. <ref name="Walla!"/>
