Second Temple of Jerusalem

The Second Temple of Jerusalem was built between 521-516 BCE after the Jews returned from the Babylonian Exile.

The First Temple of Jerusalem was King Solomon’s Temple, which was destroyed in 586 BCE, when the Jewish population was taken captive during the Babylonian Exile in Babylon, Mesopotamia.
After 70 years, the Jewish population was allowed to return under Darius the Great.
They built the Second Temple of Jerusalem between 521-516 BCE. It was later rebuilt by Herod the Great between 20-18 BCE.
In 70 CE the Romans completely destroyed the Second Temple after the First Jewish-Roman War.

All that remains of the Second Temple is the Western Wall, known today as the Wailing Wall.
