The Border That Used To Split Jerusalem - Historical Photos

Date: 2023-05-15

Between 1948 and 1967 - a 19 year period - Jerusalem was dissected by an armistice line that served as an international border, with Jordan on the east and Israel on the west. The border was demarcated throughout the city often dissecting streets with tall concrete slabs. A small no man's land existed where the Israeli and Jordanian ceasefire lines didn't align. The border was demolished following the unification of Jerusalem after the Six Day War of 1967 but many older Jerusalem residents can still remember what it was like to live in an internationally divided city.
