Summary

Description
English: Photograph of Jerusalem mayor Mordechai Ish Shalom, and Yitzhak Ben Tsvi (the president of Israel) standing next to the ruins of redemption hotel (מלון הגאולה) built by Jeanne Merkus, aka "house of the 144.000" after the biblical verse Revelation 7:4 ("And I heard the number of the sealed, 144,000, sealed from every tribe of the sons of Israel:"). In the back can be seen Heichal Shlomo, the seat of the chief rabbinate, which was completed in 1958
Français : sur cette photo on peut voir les ruines de l'hotel de la rédemption également connu sous le nom de "hôtel des 144.000" d'après le verset Apocalypse 7,4 ("Et j'entendis le nombre de ceux qui avaient été marqués du sceau, cent quarante-quatre mille, de toutes les tribus des fils d'Israël.") dont la construction a été entreprise par Jeanne Merkus mais jamais achevée, faute de moyens.
