Zichron Moshe synagogue, Religious center in Zikhron Moshe district, Jerusalem, Israel.
Description

History
The building began as a two-room apartment with a courtyard, then transformed from a pub into a synagogue through Yitzhak Armoza's donation. This conversion made it a religious center for the community.

The walls inside display artistic representations of the seven species from Torah and tribal symbols near the entrance. These visual elements tell biblical stories through art that visitors notice as they move through the space.
