the Jewish life of the first century. Situated on the shores of the Sea of Galilee, it was a
thriving fishing and trading hub during a pivotal period in Jewish history. What makes
Magdala so exceptional is the discovery of its remarkably well-preserved synagogue—the
oldest found in Galilee—where Jewish worshippers gathered thousands of years ago. This site
