It used to be called Square of Kings of Israel until the November 4th 1995. On this day the Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin was murdered by an Israeli fanatic. None of us will ever forget this day, neither we'll forget the man who got us so close to the peace in the Middle East. Right after the murder people started writing on the walls about their pain and tears. And somebody simply wrote "Rabin Square". Few days later the Square was officialy named after the greatest Peace Maker of Israel

It took three visits to Israel for me to finally pay my respects to Prime Minister Rabin, I'm ashamed to say. Thanks to Sharon, we made a point to go to Rabin Square (named after him posthumously) one evening, which made the memorial seem that much more haunting under a cold night sky. It was hard to hold back the tears. Yitzak Rabin won a Nobel Peace Prize in 1994 for his participation in the Oslo Accords and for his tireless work and vision toward a rapprochement with the Palestinians. Contrary to what some mistakenly believe, Yitzak Rabin was not killed by a Palestinian - he was assassinated in November of 1995 by a radical Israeli dissident - which in some ways makes this senseless death even more tragic. The legend on the memorial stone reads "Peace Shall Be His Legacy".

Rabin memorial

On this place prime minister Itzhak Rabin was murdered on november 4 1995 "in the name of God". The murderer - a jewish student of the Torah - was convicted to life prison; yet it is a surprising sign of Israels democracy, that he was allowed to get married in prison. Now he has appealed to the High Court for enabling him to sire a child with his wife. The appeal is still undecided and heavily discussed in Israels public.

The city hall

The square, called after Yitzhak Rabin, one of the countries greatest leaders who was killed at the location in November 4th 1995 after a peace rally. A memorial monument is located at the north-east part of the sqaure, behind the large city hall. The city hall building is not the most desirable peace of architecture but its also became a symbol of the city center and its hard to imagine the sqaure without it. Many historical events were held at the square, including large political events, celebration of sports winnings and love parades.
