What are the prayer notes placed in the wall?
Posted on Aug 04, 2025 / Travel
It is a longstanding tradition for people to write prayers or wishes on small pieces of paper and insert them into the crevices of the Western Wall. These notes are considered sacred and are not removed casually. Twice a year, they are collected and respectfully buried in the Mount of Olives cemetery according to Jewish custom. Even people who cannot visit in person can send notes through online services or local representatives.
