Description

Ohel Ya'akov Synagogue located in Zikhron Ya'akov, a town in the Haifa District of Israel. One of Israel’s most beautiful synagogues. It was established in 1886, sponsored by the Baron Edmond James de Rothschild, and was named Ohel Yaakov after the Baron’s father. The synagogue is located at the Moshava’s historic intersection and has 150 seats for men, and 150 in the women’s section. A Rosetta window that was originally set above the entrance door was later replaced by a clock with Hebrew letters. Open during prayer hours on weekdays, Shabbat and holidays.
