The Hurva tells a compact story of destruction and reconstruction in the Jewish Quarter. A nineteenth-century synagogue on this site was destroyed during the 1948 war; a commemorative arch later marked the ruin before the building was reconstructed. Today the dome is a visible quarter landmark, while the operator's visitor experience includes a lookout and passage below ground.
