Ramban Synagogue, 13th-century synagogue in Jewish Quarter, Jerusalem, Israel
The Ramban Synagogue contains an elongated prayer hall measuring 21.5 by 7.3 meters, divided into two aisles by four supporting columns.
Rabbi Moshe ben Nachman established this synagogue in 1267, marking the beginning of renewed Jewish presence in Jerusalem following periods of destruction.
The synagogue serves as a center for religious studies and daily prayers, maintaining centuries-old traditions of the Ashkenazi Jewish community.
Located several meters below street level, the entrance through the western side leads visitors first through a study hall into the main prayer room.
The building's architecture reveals its pre-Crusader origins through the absence of Gothic and Islamic elements, featuring Romanesque and Byzantine capitals instead.
