>History of the Temple and the Western Wall
The Temple in Jerusalem was the holiest place for the Jewish people. It was built on Mount Moriah, where Abraham almost sacrificed Isaac. The First Temple was built by King Solomon around 957 BCE. It was destroyed by the Babylonians in 586 BCE, and many Jews were exiled. The Second Temple was rebuilt in 516 BCE and later renovated by Herod the Great. It became the center of Jewish worship and national life. The Romans destroyed the Second Temple in 70 CE, which led to a long exile of the Jewish people. The Temple was important because it was where Jews brought sacrifices, celebrated holidays, and connected directly with God. It was considered the spiritual heart of the Jewish nation. The Western Wall (Kotel) is the only part of the outer retaining wall that remains from the Second Temple. It’s the only remaining wall that was the closest wall to the Holy of Holies, the most sacred part of the Temple. The wall is now a sacred wall for all pray there because it’s the closest we can get to where the Temple once stood.

Benefits Of Placing a Prayer at the Western Wall
Lift your spirits and find salvation!
"From Your Heart to the Holy Wall – Wherever You Are." Tucked into the cracks between the weathered limestone blocks, thousands of tiny folded papers rest quietly—each one a whispered hope. These notes are filled with heartfelt prayers, requests for health, peace, forgiveness, love, or gratitude. Some are written in shaky handwriting, others carefully typed. They come from all over the world, in dozens of languages, placed there by those who visit in person or send their wishes from afar. Despite their size, each note carries the weight of deep emotion and faith, turning the Wall into a tapestry of human connection to the Divine.
