The ancient synagogue of Chorazin. Apparently built in late 3rd or early 4th century AD, the synagogue was destroyed in an earthquake of late 4th century. It was rebuilt in 5th century and lasted until 8th century. The synagogue is more famous for its association with Jesus, though till date no structure discovered from Chorazin has been undisputedly dated from 1st century.
