Rav Kook House

The house in which Rabbi Avraham Yitzchak HaCohen Kook, the religious Zionist leader and the first Chief Rabbi of the Land of Israel, lived and worked, from 1923 to his demise in 1935.

The house is situated on the second floor of the Beit David neighborhood, which was the fourth neighborhood to be built out of the city walls and was called a yard neighborhood - one building in which all flats are built around a single central courtyard in which the community life is conducted.
