Frumin House, Parliament building on King George Street, Jerusalem, Israel.

Located at number 24 King George Street, Frumin House features a three-story structure with a convex corner and stone strips between floors.

The building served as the temporary home of the Israeli Parliament from 1950 to 1966, hosting sessions of the first through fifth Knesset.

The ground floor contains a large hall with an upper balcony, originally intended as a bank, which became the main parliamentary assembly space.

During parliamentary sessions, authorities closed King George Street to traffic, affecting local circulation patterns and requiring special security measures.

The Frumin family, who manufactured baked goods, initiated the construction in 1947 for residential and commercial purposes before it became a parliament.
