Rabban Yochanan ben Zakai Synagogue



According to legend, the Rabban Yochanan ben Zakai Synagogue, also known as Kahal Kadosh Gadol, stands on the spot of the Beit Midrash of the Second Temple era sage Rabban Yochanan ben Zakai. Located in the old Jewish Quarter of Jerusalem, it suffered the same fate as most the synagogues in the area during the 19 year Jordanian occupation.
