Ramban Synagogue

The Ramban Synagogue (Hebrew: בית כנסת הרמב"ן‎‎), is the second oldest active synagogue in the Old City of Jerusalem. It was founded by Nahmanides (Ramban) in 1267, to service the local Jewish community, which would expand due to its presence. Today there are two Ramban Synagogues in Jerusalem, the original historic one described in this article stands in the Old City; and a new one, established after 1948 and rebuilt in 2005, at 4 Amatsya Street in the Katamon neighbourhood of West Jerusalem.
