Ohel Ya'akov Synagogue, Zikhron Ya'akov, Orthodox synagogue in Zikhron Ya'akov, Israel.
The building contains a main section for men and a second-floor wraparound section for women, with marble walls throughout the interior space.
Baron Edmond James de Rothschild established the synagogue in 1886 to commemorate his father Jacob Mayer de Rothschild during the early settlement period.
The synagogue's name, Ohel Ya'akov, translates to Tent of Jacob, referencing the biblical figure who resided in tents according to Genesis.
Located at 54 HaMeyasdim Street, the synagogue holds morning prayers at 8:00 on Shabbat and 6:00 from Sunday through Friday.
Early settlers collaborated with German Christians to construct the synagogue without official permits, navigating local regulations during its creation.
