About us

A bridge between you and the ancient stones.

Kotelnotes was born from a simple observation: millions of people long to place a prayer in the Western Wall, but very few will ever stand before it in person. We exist to close that distance, with reverence and without spectacle.

We are a small team of Jerusalem residents: writers, photographers, and observant community members: who walk to the Kotel on behalf of others. What started as a favor for distant family became a quiet practice, and then a service trusted by more than twelve thousand people across the world.

Every note is hand-carried. Every placement is documented. Nothing is read aloud, stored, or shared. The intimacy of your prayer is the entire point.

Reverence first

We move quietly at the wall and never disrupt prayer.

Honest proof

Real video of your real note. No stock footage, ever.

Privacy is sacred

We never read your words. They're deleted after placement.
