Second Mahanaim House, Heritage site and office building on Street of Prophets, Jerusalem, Israel

The Second Mahanaim House features symmetrical columns and a grand entrance within a stone building that follows Neoclassical architectural principles.

Swiss banker Johannes Frutiger commissioned the construction of this residence in 1885, during Jerusalem's expansion beyond the Old City walls.

The building stands as an example of European architectural influence in Jerusalem, reflecting the international character of Street of Prophets in the 19th century.

Located at 34 Shivtei Israel Street, the structure functions as both an office building and maintains its status as a preserved historical landmark.

The Second Mahanaim House combines Swiss banking heritage with Jerusalem stone construction techniques, representing the city's architectural development period.
