Mansion of Bahjí, Bahai pilgrimage site in Acre, Israel.
The Mansion of Bahji stands with white walls and multiple archways, featuring traditional Middle Eastern architectural elements and surrounded by geometric gardens.
Built in the 1870s during Ottoman rule, this mansion became the residence of Bahaullah, founder of the Bahai Faith, until his death in 1892.
The mansion contains several meditation rooms and gathering spaces where followers participate in daily prayers directed toward the adjacent shrine.
Visitors can access the mansion through guided tours, with specific schedules and dress codes required for entering the religious complex.
Edward Granville Browne, a Cambridge scholar, documented the only written physical description of Bahaullah during his visit to this mansion in 1890.
