When Israel gained control of the Western Wall in the Six Day War, HaKotel HaMa’aravi became a site visited by thousands every day. In 1969, the need arose to strengthen various walls in the Temple Mount area. Following the intensive archaeological excavations that began after the war, there was concern about the stability of the findings, especially the Western Wall. The engineers of the Faculty of Civil Engineering got involved in the task of strengthening the Western Wall and other walls in the area and built supports that hold up to this day! The task of maintenance in the heart of an area sacred to the three monotheistic and politically explosive religions was successfully carried out.
