Kral Davud'un Kabri (İbranice: קבר דוד המלך‎), 12. yüzyılda başlayan bir geleneğe göre İsrail Kralı Davud'un defin yeri olarak kabul edilen yer. Tarihçilerin ve arkeologların çoğu, siteyi Kral Davud'un gerçek defin yeri olarak görmemektedir.^[1]

Kudüs'teki Zion Dağı'nda, yirminci yüzyılın başlarında inşa edilmiş olan Dormition Manastırı yakınlarında yer alır. Mezarın, bir Bizans kilisesi veya geç Roma Dönemi Sinagogu olarak kabul edilen eski Hagia Zion'un kalıntılarının zemininde yer aldığı düşünülmektedir. Bina Diaspora Yeshiva tarafından yönetilmekedir.

Eskiden bir cami olan yapı, 1948'de İsrail Devleti'nin kurulmasını takiben bir sinagog haline getirildi; o tarihten sonra İsrail Diyanet İşleri Bakanlığı, siteyi İsrail'in ilk dini alanına dönüştürme sürecine başladı.^[2] Sitede Yahudi ibadethanesi kuruldu ve siteye Yahudi dini sembolleri eklendi.^[3] 1948'den 1967'deki Altı Gün Savaşı'na kadar İsrail'deki en kutsal Yahudi bölgesi olarak kabul edildi.^[4]

Son yıllarda Yahudi eylemciler ve Hristiyan inananlar arasındaki gerilim artmaktadır.^[1]^[5]^[6]

Immediately after the war he initiated a long series of religious ceremonies that brought about a radical change in the status of King David's Tomb and served to encourage Jewish control of the Tomb structure, in the absence of any official decision by the State of Israel. This endeavor was roundly condemned by various official Israeli bodies from its earliest stages."
