The Jewish Quarter is one of the four traditional quarters of the Old City of Jerusalem (part of Israeli-occupied East Jerusalem). In the early 20th century, the Jewish population of the quarter reached 19,000 people. The 116,000 square meter area lies in the southeastern sector of the walled city. It stretches from the Zion Gate in the south, along the Armenian Quarter on the west, up to the Street of the Chain in the north, and extends to the Western Wall and the Temple Mount in the east.
